But the company has put its electric car engineering know-how to good use to develop the Charge Qube, a mobile, flexible charging solution that stores energy in repurposed EV battery packs and can charge multiple vehicles, with or without a grid connection.
To get around these problems, Bristol-based electric car specialist Fellten has developed a ‘portable’ EV charger solution that makes use of recycled electric car batteries and old shipping containers.
It’s ideal for locations where permanent charging stations aren’t feasible due to infrastructure limitations or planning restrictions, and can be deployed at van, HGV, and fleet depots, EV charging hubs, construction sites, outdoor events and even festivals.
Charge Qube uses shipping containers and recycled electric car batteries to overcome grid connection and planning problems.
Planning restrictions and problems with grid connections are cited as the most common reasons for the delay in the rollout of the UK’s charging infrastructure, especially when it comes to the government’s £950m Rapid Charging Fund, which has yet to be touched.
