Tritium Applauds Proposed Texas NEVI Funding Requirement for Both NACS and CCS Connectors
10 7월 2023 - 9:00PM
Tritium DCFC Limited (Tritium) (Nasdaq: DCFC), a global leader in
direct current (DC) fast chargers for electric vehicles (EVs),
supports the Texas Department of Transportation’s proposal to
require both the Combined Charging Standard (CCS) and North
American Charging Standard (NACS) connectors for each National
Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) Formula Program-funded
charger in the state, and supports the Texas Transportation
Commission’s authorization of this proposal.
To assist the State of Texas and other states considering
this requirement, Tritium is committed to providing NACS connectors
on its chargers by late 2023 or early 2024. On the heels of the
Texas Department of Transportation’s proposal, the Kentucky
Transportation Cabinet issued an addendum to the state’s NEVI
request for proposal to require NACS connectors.
“The US electric vehicle market is dominated by
Tesla, which is driving market demand for NACS connectors on public
chargers. Tritium makes universal chargers which all electric
vehicles can use, so we are connector technology agnostic. We
therefore support the Texas Department of Transportation’s
proposal, which will provide Tesla drivers with greater charging
access and convenience,” said Tritium CEO Jane Hunter. “The NEVI
program is funded by US taxpayer dollars and aims to increase equal
and equitable access to fast charging, to further grow confidence
in, and drive up the levels of, EV adoption in the US. The
statistics for EV uptake in the US by automaker support policies
requiring both CCS and NACS connectors on every fast charger.
Tritium looks forward to a future where there is global alignment
on a single connector technology, but will continue to support
prevailing market demand and government-mandated connector
selections in the medium-term.”
Tesla accounted for more than 60% of the US electric vehicle
market in 2022, a 41% increase over 2021, according to
Experian.
“With the large and increasing number of Teslas
on US roadways, and the growing commitment from automakers to
incorporate NACS charging ports in new EV models, it is crucial to
ensure the futureproofing of public fast-charging infrastructure
with NACS connectors,” said Tritium President of the Americas Mike
Calise. “By offering both CCS and NACS connectors on each charger,
we maximize site utilization for charge point operators, reduce
driver wait times, and provide an optimal charging solution to meet
the surging demand for EVs in Texas and other states.”
In March, Tritium announced the company’s first NEVI-compliant
product offering, with four of Tritium’s 150kW PKM150 charging
stations and two power cabinets. This charging system is expected
to achieve the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA)’s Build
America, Buy America Act waiver milestones, which includes two
phases announced by the FHWA in February. Tritium’s NEVI-compliant
product announcement was followed in June by an announcement that
the company expects to make NACS connectors available as an option
during manufacture and as a retrofit kit for post-manufacture,
including for chargers deployed as part of the NEVI Formula Program
and the Charging and Fueling Infrastructure (CFI) Discretionary
Grant Program.
