ChargePoint Introduces Next-Gen EV Chargers with Faster Speeds and Bidirectional Capabilities
The new AC Level 2 chargers, launching in Europe this summer and North America by year-end, promise double charging speeds, V2X functionality, and dynamic load balancing.
- ChargePoint's new Level 2 chargers can deliver up to 19.2kW of power, halving the typical charging time to about four hours.
- The chargers feature bidirectional (V2X) technology, enabling EVs to power homes, businesses, or send energy back to the grid.
- Dynamic load balancing allows the chargers to optimize power usage by accelerating charging speeds when excess energy is available.
- Designed for versatility, the chargers are suited for residential, commercial, fleet, and multi-unit installations, with integration options for smart home systems.
- A phased rollout is planned, starting in Europe this summer, with North American deployment scheduled by the end of 2025.
