VANCOUVER — Portable Electric, a manufacturer of emission-free portable and mobile e-Charging power stations, announced a partnership with Volvo Construction Equipment (Volvo CE) to provide sustainable and efficient mobile charging solutions for construction sites. As part of this partnership, Volvo CE’s 245 North American dealer locations will offer customers the opportunity to bundle the Voltstack 30k Level 2 e-Charger with the purchase of Volvo electric equipment.
The Voltstack 30k Level 2 Mobile EV Charger is a mobile charging solution that caters to a wide range of electric equipment requirements such as boost charging, setting up temporary charging stations, or providing recharging services whenever needed. The Voltstack 30k Level 2 e-Charger, equipped with a 30 kW power output and an 80 kWh battery capacity, will play a pivotal role in the recharging of Volvo’s ECR25 excavator, the L20 and L25 wheel loaders as well as any other electric construction equipment. In addition to providing a whole host of charging solutions, the unit provides a source of silent, emission-free power on job sites. The Voltstack 30k can also be hybridized with a generator to provide off-grid power through its “Smart Hybrid” feature. This feature allows the Voltstack 30k to automatically engage a diesel generator when it reaches a state of low charge.
“We are pleased to partner with Portable Electric to offer our customers an efficient, sustainable and off–grid mobile charging solution for their Volvo electric equipment,” said Ray Gallant, VP Sustainability & Productivity Services at Volvo CE. “Bundling charging infrastructure like the Voltstack 30k Level 2 e-Charger with the purchase of our electric excavators or wheel loaders supports customers in reducing the carbon footprint of construction sites and improving the overall environmental impact of their projects.”
