Kwetta’s solution recognises that the hardest part of transport electrification is solving grid challenges.
Feeders operating close to thermal limits, restricting additional load.
N-1 redundancy, back feed and extreme weather events require contingent capacity to prevent outages and ensure grid resilience.
Voltage constraints created by unmanaged load, intermittent generation or feeder length.
Electronic loads creating harmonics, power factor issues, or grid instability.
The question we asked ourselves:
✔ Vertically integrated
✔ Small footprint
✔ Reduced cost & complexity
✔ Modular by design
Connects at 6.6 to 22 kV, delivering up to 1.2 MVA per unit.
Multiple units can be connected in an HV ring with single or dual supply to deliver up to 12 MVA per site with 99.99% reliability.
Fully import/export capable.
Grid Power Modules separate grid complexity from the customer charging experience by actively regulating voltage, current, power ramp rates and load sharing between modules. They respond dynamically to charger demand, site constraints and grid or transformer limits to deliver high availability and reliable charging.
DC-fed dispensers from 200kW to MCS, designed for reliable operation in robust environments with industry-leading cable management.
Fully integrated and modular BESS provide optionality for increased charging capacity, site energy optimisation and energy market participation.
