AmpUp and Tritium Collaborate for EV Charging Advancements
AmpUp, a recognized name in electric vehicle (EV) charging solutions, has joined forces with Tritium to enhance and modernize fast-charging infrastructure. This innovative partnership aims to improve the charging experience across various locations.
Streamlined Charging Network Integration
This new initiative is designed to make it easier for Tritium RT50 owners to connect with the AmpUp charging network. The program is divided into two phases, allowing participants to select their preferred path for integration.
Phase One: Simple Integration Process
The initial phase emphasizes a seamless transition into the AmpUp network. Tritium station owners can swiftly initiate this process with a few straightforward steps:
- Provide the Tritium charger’s serial number (assistance is available for finding this).
- AmpUp manages the transfer into their network at no cost.
- Owners will receive tailored options for selecting their cloud service.
- While there may be minor labor costs for replacing the Tritium SIM card, Ethernet-connected chargers will typically bypass this requirement.
Upgrade Opportunities for Enhanced Performance
Phase Two introduces an attractive upgrade option for RT50 owners. Participants have the opportunity to replace their existing charger with a state-of-the-art 50kW DC fast charger, complete with several benefits.
Benefits of the New Charger
- Dual Charging: Charge two EVs at once, effectively doubling your charging throughput.
- Universal Compatibility: Equipped with both CCS and NACS cords to accommodate nearly every EV model available.
- Robust Warranty: Included is a 3-year warranty on parts to ensure peace of mind.
- Scalable Power: The unit may be upgraded to 75kW, adapting to future charging requirements.
- Sustainability Commitment: AmpUp handles the recycling of the old RT50 units responsibly.
- Minor Installation Hassle: The new RTM charger is engineered to fit seamlessly into your existing RT50 setup with minimal disruption to services.
Future Outlook on EV Charging
The impact of this partnership extends beyond simple upgrades. As AmpUp co-founder and CEO Tom Sun noted, the initiative reflects a strong commitment to enhancing the EV charging journey for current users. “By streamlining access to our network and presenting solid upgrade choices, we empower Tritium owners to fully utilize their infrastructure,” he stated.
Dimitrios Papadogonas, Tritium's VP for global marketing and communications, also emphasized the importance of collaboration in advancing the EV charging landscape. “Partnering with AmpUp enables charging station owners to adapt to changing market demands while ensuring dependable service for EV drivers,” he explained.
