High Power, Small Footprint

Supernova will support up to 180 kW of charging power, meaning it can add 100 miles of range in under 10 minutes.* Its reduced footprint opens up more sites to fast charging opportunities, including locations with limited space and power such as gas stations, car dealerships, and shopping malls.

Supernova’s innovative six module design allows for versatile deployment across various locations, making it an ideal choice for public charging infrastructure. This design concept enables easy, safe and cheaper installation, which can be safely managed with either a forklift or crane. In addition, Supernova 180 offers unparalleled service access, with entry points on all four vertical sides of the charger.

Innovative modular design for improved performance

Supernova 180 unique design which incorporates six 30kW power modules solves one of the biggest pain points of the EV market, uptime. In the unlikely event that one of the six modules fails, Supernova 180 will continue to charge an EV using the remaining five modules, only slightly reducing the power output.
