EV Charging Infrastructure
Charging hubs powered by our own solar and storage. Clean generation to clean mobility, closing the loop rather than moving emissions upstream.
- Charger range
- 150–350 kW DC
- Connectors
- CCS2 / GB-T
- Backend
- OCPP
- Build time
- 2–5 months
The constraint nobody expects
Most people assume the hard part of a charging hub is the chargers. It is not. It is the grid connection. A site wanting six 350 kW chargers is asking for over 2 MW of connected load, and in most locations that connection either does not exist or takes a year and a substantial contribution to obtain.
A buffer battery solves this. It charges slowly from a modest grid connection across the day and discharges quickly when vehicles arrive. The hub delivers ultra-fast charging on a connection a fraction of the size, and the project becomes possible on a timescale that makes commercial sense.
What a hub contains
| Component | Function |
|---|---|
| DC fast chargers | 150–350 kW units with CCS2 or GB-T connectors and dynamic power sharing |
| Transformer and switchgear | MV connection, LV distribution and protection for the full hub load |
| Canopy structure with PV | Steel canopy shading vehicles while generating on site |
| Buffer battery | Peak shaving, so a small grid connection delivers large charging power |
| OCPP backend | Payment, roaming, remote diagnostics and load balancing |
| Civil and safety works | Foundations, bollards, trenching, lighting, CCTV and signage |
Delivery
A charging hub typically takes two to five months from contract to opening: site and grid assessment, design and permitting, civil works and canopy erection, electrical installation, then charger certification and backend integration.
Where these work commercially
- Retail and hospitality — dwell time is the product; charging brings customers and keeps them on site
- Fleet depots — predictable overnight charging profiles, ideal for solar plus storage
- Logistics and last mile — high vehicle turnover with defined duty cycles
- Highway corridors — where grid capacity is usually weakest and a buffer battery is essential
The canopy earns twice in the Gulf. Shade is not a bonus here. A vehicle parked uncovered in a UAE summer reaches interior temperatures that customers actively avoid, so the canopy that carries the PV is itself a reason people choose the site.
Frequently asked questions
Why does an EV charging hub need a battery?
Because grid connections large enough for multiple fast chargers are expensive and slow to obtain. A buffer battery charges slowly from a modest connection and discharges quickly on demand, letting the hub deliver ultra-fast charging on a much smaller connection.
How long does it take to build a charging hub?
Typically two to five months from contract to opening, covering grid assessment, design and permits, civil works, electrical installation, charger certification and backend integration.
What charger power do you install?
DC fast chargers from 150 to 350 kW with CCS2 or GB-T connectors and dynamic power sharing between units.
What is an OCPP backend?
The Open Charge Point Protocol backend handles payment, roaming between networks, remote diagnostics and load balancing across the chargers on a site.
