The E Race Charger carries maximum power of 160kW, can charge two cars simultaneously pre-race, reduces footprint and improves sustainability.
ABB unveiled the charging technology it will use for Season 9 of the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship when the company takes on its new role as an official charging supplier. Working with engineers from motorsport governing bodies, the FIA and Formula E, ABB has developed a compact, reliable and safe solution for charging the new Gen3 cars before race day and between sessions. The ABB Formula E Race Charger has been designed in a robust, custom and ergonomic way that allows for easy global transportation and installation. Each charger can deliver a maximum power of 160kW and charge two vehicles with 80kW power simultaneously before the race. This allows race teams to benefit from a ‘double charging’ capacity from one unit, significantly reducing the charger footprint and decreasing transportation emissions, as there is no longer a need for one unit per car. The ABB Formula E Race Charger features ABB’s newest charging technology and draws on the company’s leading position in the sector. Its design adapts technology already proven in road car charging applications to suit a demanding motorsport environment. It offers the greatest reliability and consistency of performance.
