Gravity is an EV infrastructure startup backed by Google. It has now released a 200kW curbside DC fast chargers. This speedy 18 x 9 x 27-inch DC charger can be mounted to street utility poles and uses the same advanced technology as Gravity’s record setting indoor charging system. This curbside DC fast charger is no bigger than Level 2 charger, but it is 30 times faster.
Gravity says its lightning-fast curbside EV chargers can deliver 200 miles of range in 13 minutes, don’t need utility upgrades or street reconstruction, and can be deployed en masse. What’s more, the UL Solution-certified chargers are bidirectional.
Also the providing speeds mean chargers can be deployed on metered curbs in busy city areas- where people are already parking – and provide dozens of charging sessions per parking space daily, minimizing turnover and minimizing driver’s downtime.
Moshe Cohen, founder and CEO of Gravity, said “ An urban parking spot is valuable real estate. So is people’s time. If cities install slow, outdated chargers at the curb, they’re wasting people’s time and blocking the ability to fully utilize the talent potential in parked EV batteries.”
