The British company has chosen the JUICE BOOSTER 2 22kW portable charger to equip its EV sites across the country
Juice Technology is supplying JUICE BOOSTER 2 charging stations to help Morgan Sindall Infrastructure accelerate the electrification of its fleet. The British company manages a total fleet of 450 commercial vehicles and around 700 company cars in the infrastructure sector, of which fifty percent are already electric, with the remainder to be converted to electric vehicles over the next three years.
The challenge is fleet management, which can be difficult due to the limited range of some commercial vehicles. Combined with the lack of charging stations on the public network, Morgan Sindall has been forced to organize the charging of vehicles involved in infrastructure projects on its own construction sites and plans to install charging stations.
Jonathan Hall, Plant & Transport Director at Morgan Sindall, explains: “Having a temporary charging solution is beneficial as installing fixed charging stations would be expensive, especially as our construction sites are only set up for the duration of the project. With the JUICE BOOSTER 2, it is much easier to adjust the number of charging points if required and it offers a wealth of options in terms of connectors and various adapters.”
Here are the key factors that make the JUICE BOOSTER 2 the perfect solution for Morgan Sindall Infrastructure:
1 - It is a 22 kW portable charger designed for maximum flexibility and safety throughout the charging process. With a range of different adapters, it allows EVs to be charged wherever electricity is available, be it at a public charging station or elsewhere. In addition, the charger's technology allows electric vehicle drivers to safely use the maximum charging speed.
2 - The charger is flexible and easy to use and can be adapted to different vehicle types and situations where it is not always possible to rely on public charging stations.
3 - It offers a wide range of connection options and different adapters to suit the power connection at each location or as conditions change during the project. By charging on site, where a three-phase power supply is usually available, the potential of a 22 kW charging station can be fully exploited and the charging time - even with a single-phase AC supply - can be reduced to a minimum.
4 - As Morgan Sindall delivers some of the UK's most important and critical infrastructure, the company needed to independently manage charging for vehicles involved in infrastructure construction projects on its own sites, installing charging points available to drivers. The portable charger is more cost-effective than a traditional stationary solution, which would not be able to offer the same flexibility.
