- First commercial shipment of 'MAX' co-developed with i-charging… Expansion of European supply begins with installation in Portugal

- Secured orders in Germany and Switzerland… Strengthening competitiveness in next-generation charging infrastructure market with EV Power Module

On the 21st, Soluem announced that it is accelerating its entry into the European electric commercial vehicle charging market by commencing the first commercial shipment of 'MAX (Maximum Charger)', a megawatt (MW)-class ultra-fast charging platform co-developed with i-charging, a European electric vehicle charging infrastructure company.

Soluem stated that i-charging's megawatt-class ultra-fast charging platform MAX, equipped with Soluem's EV Power Module, has recently completed its first shipment and is currently being installed at the site of a Portuguese client. This supply represents the first commercialization case of the strategic cooperation between the two companies, and additional orders have been secured in Germany and Switzerland to lay the foundation for expanding into the European market.

Recently, as electric trucks and large commercial vehicles are rapidly being adopted across Europe, demand for megawatt-class charging infrastructure is also increasing. In particular, logistics companies and fleet operators are actively adopting high-power charging solutions that can simultaneously achieve short charging times and high operational efficiency. MAX was developed to reflect these market demands.

MAX is a next-generation megawatt-class charging platform combining Soluem's EV Power Module with i-charging's modular charging architecture. It supports output expansion from 50kW up to a maximum of 1.6MW within a single charging cabinet and is compatible with all major global fast-charging standards, including CCS, NACS, GB/T, and MCS (Megawatt Charging System). Its key feature is optimization for high-capacity charging environments such as public charging hubs, commercial vehicle fleets, and logistics bases.

Soluem's EV Power Module, the core technology of the platform, is designed to operate up to 32 power modules in parallel, enabling megawatt-class power supply even within a compact structure. Additionally, i-charging's patent-based real-time power distribution technology is applied, allowing dynamic allocation of charging power to up to eight vehicles simultaneously, thereby enhancing the utilization rate of charging infrastructure.

Pedro Silva, CEO of i-charging, stated, "Implementing a 1.6MW-class charging system up to actual commercial installation stages is a far greater challenge than the industry anticipates," and added, "We will provide solutions that meet the scalability and performance levels required by European public charging operators and fleet management companies."

Lee Jeong-hoon, Soluem's Head of Europe, said, "This first commercial shipment demonstrates that Soluem's EV Power Module can serve as a core technology for megawatt-class charging systems," and added, "Through our collaboration with i-charging, we plan to expand supply in the European market and broaden the application scope in the global electric vehicle charging market."

Soluem plans to further expand its EV Power Module business into the global market, including Europe, following this commercial shipment. The company is committed to continuously strengthening its technological competitiveness in the next-generation electric vehicle charging infrastructure market based on its power conversion technology and high-efficiency power electronics capabilities.
