At Power2Drive 2025, Sungrow Charging has introduced its latest innovation, the IDC480E-C ultra-fast compact charger, representing a significant step forward in modular and high-performance EV charging. Designed for everything from compact urban locations to large-scale charging depots, the IDC480E-C offers scalable and flexible charging infrastructure tailored to evolving business needs.
The IDC480E-C joins Sungrow’s expanding portfolio of charging solutions, including the Satellite charger IDC480E and various AC and DC systems, offering customers a broad spectrum of scalable charging configurations.
Robert von Wahl, Director EV Charging Europe at Sungrow, emphasized the strategic importance of this launch: “The IDC480E-C represents a significant milestone in our journey towards a greener and interconnected future. Its modular scalability, smart charging flexibility, high efficiency and low maintenance requirements are designed to meet the evolving needs of our customers and support the rapid growth of EV infrastructure across Europe.”
Built for Longevity, Efficiency, and AI-Supported Performance
The IDC480E-C is engineered with Sungrow’s patented Isolated Air-Cooling Technology, which provides a sealed, dust-free chamber for effective heat dissipation. It is designed for rugged performance in both indoor and outdoor environments, supported by advanced anti-corrosion protection. A key differentiator is its AI-powered lifecycle management, ensuring reliable service for over 10 years and reducing total cost of ownership.
At the heart of the charger is Sungrow’s proprietary 40kW Power Module, delivering over 97% efficiency. Manufactured in-house, the module guarantees optimized performance, quality assurance, and secure supply chains.
Power-on-Demand: Scalable Architecture for Future Growth
The IDC480E-C features an expandable modular architecture that supports future upgrades without expensive replacements. Customers can configure total output capacities ranging from 240kW to 480kW, catering to various fleet types and charging demands. Intelligent power distribution across multiple dispensers enhances station throughput and operational efficiency.
Optional configurations include up to four connectors with an extra Air-Cooled dispenser, or up to three connectors with an extra Liquid-Cooled dispenser, offering tailored flexibility for diverse deployment scenarios.
Smarter Sector Coupling with Beyond Charging Solution
In a key highlight, the IDC480E-C integrates with Sungrow’s Beyond Charging Solution, a unified energy system combining PV, energy storage (ESS), and EV charging (EVC) technologies under one brand. This end-to-end solution ensures grid resilience, energy independence, and optimized system performance, particularly in areas with limited power supply.
The AI-enhanced power management and system integration contribute to maximized ROI, lower operational costs, and accelerated charging capabilities—supporting users in meeting sustainability and infrastructure goals.
