Under the contract, L-Charge will deliver boosting equipment capable of amplifying the output power of typical 4kW-15kW charge points, currently operated in India, to deliver up to 120 kW.

The British charger manufacturer L-Charge has started what it says is an extensive test run of a mobile fast-charging service for electric vehicles in Europe. The special feature of the charging stations is that they are off-grid using LNG, hydrogen or a mixture of both to generate the electricity for charging on site. The L-Charge stations can provide charging power of up to 130 kW.

El fabricante de soluciones de carga ultrarrápida fuera de la red iniciará un nuevo testeo de su camión de carga móvil para vehículos eléctricos alimentado con combustibles limpios.

Electric Vehicle charge point manufacturer L-Charge have announced they will start field trials of their ultra-fast mobile EV-charging service in London from the beginning of September 2022.

Even though the discussion about the benefits of electric transport is more than a decade old, the proportion of electric vehicles in the global corporate fleet is still surprisingly small. According to the IEA's Global Electric Vehicle Outlook 2022, electric light commercial vehicles (LCVs) make up just 2% of the global fleet of this kind. Fully electric vehicles make up 4% of the global fleet of buses and 0.1% of heavy-duty trucks. The LCV share barely exceeds 12%, even in advanced markets.

Automakers across the EU have experienced a major decline in new car sales with sales volumes at their lowest rate since 1996. The industry continues to experience issues with the supply of semiconductor chips and consumers are faced with rising inflation.

In this context, retail stores need to adopt new strategies to ensure they maintain and grow their customer footfall rates by providing electric vehicle charging facilities at their sites. The big question is, how can retail store owners benefit from this growing number of EV drivers?

L-Charge's ultra-fast off-grid solutions are powered using hydrogen and LNG, and could help Europe speed up its transition towards achieving net-zero," said Justin Tarr at Oslo's EVS 35

In 2021, the UK government reduce its financial support for EVs, both for fleet and private owners Justin Tarr of L-Charge explains how grid-independent electric vehicle charging solutions can offer a solid foundation for governments and local authorities electrifying their fleets.

But there are other innovative solutions being developed by several start-ups, which could help. L-Charge, for example, has developed a charging station that’s off the grid entirely and can charge 100 km (roughly 60 miles) in just 5-10 minutes

With the company still in the early stages, L-Charge is set to pioneer its first mobile charging point soon. This shows how fast the EV charging industry is evolving, given that some peer service providers have also jumped into the off-grid charging bandwagon.

Many jurisdictions are embarking on plans to combat climate change. A push toward electric vehicles (EVs) currently leads the way.

As for its mobile charging point, L-Charge introduces a movable charging minivan that can patrol specific zones to recharge EVs on request. This moving charging point leverages Liquid Natural Gas (LNG) or a combination of LNG and Hydrogen (H2) to create carbon-efficient energy, ultimately powering EV vehicles. Notably, LNG emits 45% less carbon than coal and 30% less than oil.

Innovation across the electric car industry ramps up as manufacturers unveil different offerings appealing to a wide range of consumers, especially for those priced out of vehicles like a Tesla.

L-CHARGE, the super-fast charging technology developer, announces the availability of its first-generation 10-minute-speed charging station fully working prototype.
