Powering Transit, Efficiently.

Unlock ultra-fast, automated charging for public transit via pantograph connection. With a typical charge time of just 3-6 minutes, the HVC150 seamlessly integrates into existing bus operations with no driver action required.

Opportunity Charging

Our pantograph systems feature a robust design and are backed by remote diagnostics and management tools for high uptime.

power cabinets with Pantograph-Down

Pantograph-Down

The Pantograph-down system delivers up to 450 kW of fast charging with flexible power levels to match operational needs. A vehicle-mounted pantograph ensures any issues are isolated to individual buses, minimizing fleet disruption.

power cabinets with Pantograph-Up

Pantograph-Up

The Pantograph-up system follows the OppCharge protocol, enabling fully automated charging with fast charge times. It integrates seamlessly into daily operations, ensuring zero-emission transit without disrupting bus schedules.
