Huawei unveils DC ESS solution and 800-ampere liquid-cooled charging to overcome grid capacity constraints
AI-summarised brief · reviewed before publication
Huawei announced a DC energy‑storage‑system (ESS) plus charger platform at Power 2 Drive in Munich, featuring liquid‑cooled ultra‑fast chargers that deliver 200 km of range in five minutes. The new system supports up to 720 kW total power and 800 A on a single dispenser, with a 150–1,000 V voltage range and noise below 55 dB. It integrates PV, ESS, and charging into a modular, grid‑friendly solution that requires only 50 kW of grid capacity and can be deployed within weeks. The platform earned TÜV prime‑level safety certification and promises 96 % efficiency.
💡 Why It Matters
- · By reducing grid demand to 50 kW, Huawei’s solution sidesteps costly grid upgrades, enabling rapid EV infrastructure roll‑out even in regions with aging power networks.
