ETOBICOKE, Ontario – November 4, 2024 – Last Wednesday, representatives from ABB E-mobility and ITD Industries gathered to celebrate the commissioning of the first A400 All-In-One charger in North America. Designed to deliver the highest uptime and charging success rate, the A400 will support ITD customers’ electric fleet operations from their headquarters in Etobicoke, Ontario. The deployment marks another significant milestone in the field testing of ABB E-mobility’s industry-leading fast charger and demonstrates how partnership is critical for accelerating the adoption of electrified mobility.

“By targeting the highest uptime and charging success rates with the A400, we are establishing a new, higher industry standard and redefining what’s possible. Together with our partners ITD Industries, we are deploying North America’s first A400 and delivering the most advanced, seamless and reliable solutions available,” said Brandt Hastings, President of North America for ABB E-mobility.

The installation will provide invaluable field-testing data on the A400 as it supports fleet operations at ITD, Canada’s exclusive dealer for Nikola Motors and Zo Motors. ITD’s truck customers require reliable and fast charging solutions that meet the demands of modern transportation and logistical challenges. The field deployment at ITD will demonstrate the charger’s ability to deliver in a demanding environment.
