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.

    What future is there for automatic number plate recognition? Will it be supplanted by electronic vehicle identification, or will continuing development maintain the technology's relevance? In recent years, digitisation and IP-based communication networks have allowed Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) to achieve ever-greater utility and a commensurate increase in deployments. But where does the technology go next - indeed, does it have a future in the face of the increasing use of, for instance, Dedi
