FreeWire Technologies, Inc., San Leandro, California, has announced that Boost Charger™ is the first battery-integrated ultrafast charging system to achieve UL certification. Boost Charger is the future of electric vehicle (EV) charging technology – a next-generation charger that boosts power at the grid edge instead of relying on utility upgrades. It uses existing low-voltage power coupled with an integrated battery buffer to enable ultrafast charging speeds while reducing installation costs & complexity by an order of magnitude. By eliminating grid upgrades, Boost Charger also makes ultrafast charging feasible at ten times as many locations as compared to traditional chargers.
