Charged in 15 minutes

APT Technologies has launched a new ultra-fast EV charger as part of its Evolt range. The Evolt Ultra system, which meets CHAdeMo's standards, charges an electric vehicle in just 15 minutes and houses a dual charger to enable two vehicles to be charged simultaneously "The Evolt Ultra is smaller, slicker and most importantly, faster than anything previously developed in the area of electric vehicle charging," says Justin Meyer of APT Technologies.

1936 APT Technologies has launched a new ultra-fast EV charger as part of its Evolt range. The Evolt Ultra system, which meets CHAdeMo's standards, charges an electric vehicle in just 15 minutes and houses a dual charger to enable two vehicles to be charged simultaneously "The Evolt Ultra is smaller, slicker and most importantly, faster than anything previously developed in the area of electric vehicle charging," says Justin Meyer of APT Technologies. "The speed of charge will render electric vehicles suitable for covering distances of the vast majority of driving patterns like never before."

    Econolite's new subsidiary Aegis ITS has been set up to address the increasingly complex and exacting needs of agencies in the ITS sector. Chief Operating Officer Doug Terry talks about the evolution to service solution provider. A few very notable and honourable exceptions notwithstanding, it is these days becoming increasingly rare to find a public agency which develops its own traffic management systems. Indeed, most now rely on specialist manufacturers and suppliers to fulfil their needs. This has the h

    ITS technology can do a great deal to improve tunnel safety, as Colin Sowman discovers. It was back in April 2004 that the European Parliament adopted the EU Directive which lays down the Minimum Safety Requirements for Tunnels in the Trans-European Road Network (2004/54/EC). This was the first unitary legislation setting minimum safety standards for European road tunnels and was designed to harmonise the management of tunnel safety at a national level. Operators of existing tunnels have until 30 April 201

    Smarter transport relies on better communications both with travellers and between transport providers. Andrew Williams reports. Inrix’s prediction that the cost of traffic congestion will rise by 63% to £21bn per year by 2030 clearly illustrates that, in addition to the ongoing inconvenience and inefficiency, ongoing gridlock is a significant drain on the economy. It is against this backdrop that a Cisco-led consortium has launched CitySpire, a smart transport programme that uses location-based services a
