Humax launches commercial EV chargers to global market
Humax has debuted its commercial EV charger line-up to the global market, following its recent entry into the home EV charger industry.
The product portfolio, ranging from slow to fast chargers, has been developed to meet the diverse needs of customers and support the shift to electric vehicles, alongside its home chargers.
The global expansion draws on the mobility platform provider’s experience as a charging point operator in the Korean market, and is built around its extensive worldwide network.
The company plans to supply commercial chargers to Europe, the Middle East, Asia and North America following the introduction of ‘Turu Charger’, a CPO brand operated by Humax. With this technology, Humax has built and delivered more than 18,000 EV chargers in the Korean market.
The full line-up of commercial and home EV chargers was showcased at the Smarter E Europe 2024 exhibition in Germany late June and the company has developed strategic partnerships with an expanded portfolio of industry partners to strengthen its position in the market.
Humax has also sealed a deal with HeyCharge, a German EV charging technology company, to develop next-generation electric vehicle charging stations. These will seek to address the growing need for convenient and cost-effective EV charging solutions, particularly in urban multi-family homes and office buildings where reliable charging infrastructure has been lacking.
Humax commercial chargers deliver a smart charging environment with products certified by OCPP, an international communication standard, enabling smart charging. They also support two-channel simultaneous charging. LCD touch screens and LED indicators have been integrated to efficiently monitor charging status.
By providing charging speeds suitable for commercial environments such as public housing, highway charging stations, shopping malls and offices, Humax will create business opportunities in multiple markets with increasing global electric vehicle distribution rates, and with products tailored to the requirements of a wide variety of vehicle customers.
Jeff Kim, president of Humax, commented: “Having successfully launched home EV chargers in Europe, Humax will enter the global commercial EV charger market with a diverse line-up of fast and slow chargers to provide electric vehicle users with a hassle-free driving experience anytime, anywhere.”
