Passenger & Fleet EV Charging




Recent advances in battery technologies have added momentum to the move toward electric vehicles (EVs). Electric-powered vehicles are increasingly being viewed as an attractive and practical alternative to the high fuel prices, dependence on foreign energy supplies, and environmental damage wrought by the use of fossil fuels.


AV is helping to pave the road for reduced dependence on gasoline powered vehicles by introducing convenient, reliable and safe charging options that are designed for maximum convenience and to eliminate concerns about EV driving range.  Drivers will be able to use electric vehicles without changing their day-to-day driving or refueling habits: from home charging to “pay at the pump” fast charging in as little as 10 minutes.  With its new, universal EV charging adapter, AV seeks to ensure safe and reliable charging for all EVs. Scheduled for commercial rollout in 2010, the EV fast charge system is a powerful tool that can help enable the broader adoption of EVs in two main categories:


Passenger Electric Vehicles - a network of EV fast charge systems would ensure that EV drivers have access to a ten-minute battery charge when and where needed.  PHEV drivers could be able to drive more miles in electric mode, thereby reducing emissions and consuming more electricity, which is typically less expensive than gasoline or diesel.


Fleet Electric Vehicles - fleet EVs could come in multiple vehicle types and duty cycles, from inner-city taxis and buses to medium range delivery vans and utility repair vehicles. A few EV fast charge systems installed in a maintenance yard or a family of systems in the city could help fleet operators maintain throughput while reducing emissions and fuel expenses.
