USA, 16 June 2023: Quench EV Chargers and Advanced Battery Concepts (ABC) have announced a strategic partnership to provide electric vehicle (EV) owners with reliable, fast and convenient charging, completely independent of traditional power grids.
The collaboration between Quench and ABC is timely and vital. The US government predicts a need for 2.5 million EV charging sites by 2030. Many sources suggest that the US electrical power grid cannot support a 28% annual growth rate from now to 2030.
EV charging & energy storage
The partnership combines Quench’s expertise in EV charging with ABC’s innovative energy storage technology. ABC’s Energy Storage System (ESS) uses a new type of bipolar battery that is more efficient and environmentally friendly than traditional lithium-ion batteries. The ESS can also be charged from any source of electricity, including the power grid, solar or wind power.
The partnership will allow Quench to offer EV owners a wider range of charging options, including fast DC charging stations that can fully charge an EV in as little as 30 minutes. The partnership will also help to address the growing demand for EV charging infrastructure, as the number of EVs on the road is expected to increase significantly in the coming years.
