EV charging, the solutions

Mobile 50 is a solution that connects easily to 480 V AC wall outlets and can be used anywhere there is a compatible power source. Its portable design requires no fixed installations, which will save fleets thousands in infrastructure costs The Flex 180 solution offers up to three dispensers capable of static, sequential, and dynamic recharging for optimal charging flexibility for fleet customers. Dispensing options can be either plug-in or pantograph for transit bus customers.

“We have a storied history of building innovative partnerships that combine strengths to create incremental value for our customers. Our relationship with EV charging partners builds on this legacy, and we are excited to work together to better serve customers who rely on battery electric technology. It’s yet another step in our journey to Destination Zero”, said Zach Gillen, General Manager of Cummins Sales and Service North America. “Our collaboration with Heliox will deliver a reliable solution to support fleet customers in reaching their sustainability and emissions goals”, he added.
