LONDON, Nov. 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Zerova, a global leader in the design and production of cutting-edge DC charging solutions, is excited to announce its debut at the London EV Show 2024. Working with Zenobē, a leading fleet electrification business, Zerova is proud to be part of the electrification of many bus and coach depots across the UK. Following the energization of a key customer site in October, 26 November, both companies are highlighting a groundbreaking 1.4MW system equipped with four Zerova DO chargers and sixteen Comboxes. This innovative setup includes a drop-down cable charging system, delivering an unprecedented level of efficiency and power to each vehicle.

Zerova Technologies showcases the latest DC EV charging solutions at the London EV Show.

Zerova's collaboration with Zenobē began in early 2020 with the deployment of AC chargers and has since evolved to include advanced DC systems. This culminated in the active deployment of Megawatt charging systems across London's bus garages, allowing operators to maximize the number of vehicles per garage. Typically, these solutions range from 1.1 to 2.2MW, consisting of multiple primary power cabinets (DO360) feeding the vehicles via local Combox connections for a plug-and-charge solution.

New Innovations at London EV Show

At the London EV Show, Zerova will showcase its latest products, including the MSC Dispenser and the Combox Generation 2, which can deliver up to 500A, compared to the 200A capacity of the first generation. The new Combox also supports pantograph charging, offering versatile solutions for modern fleet requirements.
