Problem
U.S. electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure faces a shortage of domestically produced, high‑power fast chargers that meet Buy America requirements, creating supply‑chain risk and limiting deployment speed for network operators. Additionally, the industry is transitioning to the North American Charging Standard (NACS), but many existing chargers lack compatible cable options.
Solution
Tellus Power North America manufactures and assembles 180 kW and 360 kW DC fast chargers in a U.S.-based facility, using locally sourced steel and electrical components to ensure full Buy America compliance. Beginning with the fall 2023 production run, every charger is offered with NACS cable adapters, enabling seamless integration with the emerging standard. The modular hardware platform supports rapid scaling of charging sites while maintaining high reliability and safety certifications. Integrated power electronics deliver up to 360 kW output with advanced thermal management, reducing downtime and operational costs. All units are pre‑tested and shipped ready for installation, allowing utilities, fleet operators, and commercial developers to expand their networks without navigating complex import restrictions.
Target Audience
Primary customers are EV charging network operators, utility companies, fleet managers, and commercial property developers seeking high‑power, Buy America‑compliant fast chargers that support the North American Charging Standard.
