Huawei’s 720 kW Charging Stations are Being Installed in Istanbul

The automotive industry has entered a worldwide electric car transformation process. Although the latest statements from manufacturers show that companies have started to say goodbye to internal combustion engines and offer only electric cars for sale at least for the next 10 years, it seems certain that we will say goodbye to gasoline and diesel cars in the next 15-20 years. We do not say internal combustion cars because some manufacturers, hydrogen fueled cars He also sees a part of the future.

There are still two big problems with electric cars. First, the low range distance. The second is the extremely long charging time. So much so that if you make a mistake (!) like charging your electric car in the parking lot of your home, you can see charging times of 8-10 hours. Even in the most optimistic scenario, electric cars will not be available at stations. 30-45 minutes charging Needless to say, this time the fuel cost advantage of electric cars is almost eliminated.

It will end the hours of waiting for charging

Huawei is one of the companies looking for a solution to this charging problem and now, 720 kW FusionCharge started to install liquid-cooled charging stations in Turkey in partnership with Enerjisa and Zebra. According to the information shared by IT Home, 50 FusionCharges are planned to be put into service for drivers by the end of 2024. Huawei is said to claim “full charge with a cup of coffee” for FusionCharge. So, it can be said that FusionCharge promises a full charge in approximately 10 minutes. Of course, for this, the charged electric car must also support the technology.

The pilot study, which started in Ataşehir, Istanbul, is planned to be expanded primarily in the regions and cities where Enerjisa Üretim’s wind power plant investments are located. The new generation stations will serve with a range target of 1 kilometer in 1 second. The newly established Charging Hubs will also offer customers areas where they can socialize, such as markets, cafes and recreation areas. Charging Hub Its roof will consist entirely of solar panels and will stand out as a model that produces its own energy. It will also provide green energy certification for the Charging Hub from electricity produced in renewable energy plants.

Most of the charging need will be met by solar energy

The developed technological infrastructure, with its business partner Zebra Elektronik distributors, will not only be limited to the charging of passenger cars and SUVs, but will also allow fast charging of vehicles in the light commercial and heavy commercial segments. Additionally, thanks to the high-speed charging infrastructure that can be integrated with solar energy and energy storage systems. Charging power can be adjusted dynamically according to need and can be shared among distributors.

In this way Grid usage will decrease and charging concurrency will increase significantly. FusionCharge liquid-cooled power unit, which provides highly efficient, fast and reliable charging with a 10-year lifespan, will prevent unexpected grid loads that occur with increasing electric vehicle penetration.
