4540 ABB has supplied its fast-charging station for electric vehicles to the new Lidl store in Barrandov, Prague. The Terra 53 CJG fast-charging station includes a special ABB application that uses the capabilities of ABB Ability digital offering, allowing DC-based charging network monitoring and control.

ABB‘s charging stations comply with three international charging standards – CHAdeMO and Combined Charging Solution (CCS) for DC charging and Type 2 Standard  for AC charging. ABB’s stations are therefore suitable for all types of electric cars available on the market.

An important part of Lidl’s contract are ‘Driver Care’ and ‘Charger Care’ packages of communication and charging station managing systems, which enable Lidl to monitor the parameters of its charging points, including the power consumption for each of them, or to calculate statistics over a defined period.
