Powering En-Route Bus Service
key benefits
Powering En-Route
Bus Service
For terminals, endpoints and intermediate stops
High Power in Short Dwell
Deliver required kWh within schedule windows and terminal turnaround constraints
Fail-Proof Conductive Charging
Charging session initiates immediately via pantograph system when bus stops
Repeatable Terminal Deployments
Standardized cabinet and panto pole architecture enable repeatable installation
Interoperability Tested
Pantograph pole interfaces charge buses from different manufacturers
Engineering Excellence
Ready to Engage
Pantograph-Up
The panto-up follows the OppCharge protocol, enabling fully automated fast charging by raising the vehicle-mounted pantograph to connect with an overhead charging mast. This setup integrates seamlessly into daily operations, supporting quick charge cycles.
Pantograph-Down
The panto-down is ideal for bus fleets requiring continuous high-power charging. The charger-mounted pantograph automatically lowers onto roof-mounted contact rails, enabling quick, hands-free charging compatible with diverse bus models.
