Orange EV and OptiGrid introduced the Orange Juicer, a battery-integrated DC fast charger designed to eliminate the most significant barriers to fleet electrification.
“As more customers accelerate adoption of Orange EV trucks and electrify other site equipment, we’ve seen infrastructure upgrades cause serious holdups,” says Kurt Neutgens, co-founder and president of Orange EV. “The Orange Juicer solves that challenge, giving fleets a fast, scalable, and cost-effective charging platform that utilizes existing on-site power.”
Key takeaways:
· Using an onboard 180-kWh battery, the Orange Juicer steadily draws energy from existing on-site power and delivers it as high-capacity fast charging on demand. The result is full charging performance with up to 85% less grid input power, resulting in a dramatic reduction of both installation timelines and upfront costs.
· Deploy in weeks, not years.
· It provides up to 85% less grid input power without sacrificing uptime or speed.
· Plus, the modular design grows with a fleet and can be relocated as site needs change.
