This station, based on the principle of a powerbank, can charge up to four vehicles at the same time and also be used for the interim storage of eco-power.
The station is to be produced at the Hanover components plant.
From 2020 onwards, flexible charging station production will gradually replace heat exchanger production.
The charging station is based on the battery package of the Volkswagen Group’s Modular Electric Toolkit (MEB) and is designed to use its cell modules.
Later, the charging station will provide a second life for batteries from electric vehicles. A battery loses charging capacity over time.
When a vehicle battery has reached a defined, reduced residual capacity, it will be replaced. If this battery subsequently passes a thorough analysis, it can be reused in a mobile charging station.
The consistent transformation of the product portfolio towards e-mobility is a key element in the strategy of Volkswagen.
