Kempower's Dual-Connector Charger Bridges CCS and Megawatt Charging Gap

Key Details Kempower unveiled the Mega Satellite Flex charger at ACT Expo in May, featuring both CCS and MCS connectors in a single unit. The flexible dispenser supports high-power CCS charging up to 560 kW and Megawatt Charging System (MCS) up to 1.2 megawatts, making it the company's first solution to handle both technologies. Why It Matters Since MCS technology is still in early rollout stages, many fleets operate mixed vehicle fleets. The dual-connector design lets charging operators serve both traditional CCS-equipped trucks and newer MCS vehicles without infrastructure overhauls. This flexibility accelerates adoption while protecting operator investments during the industry transition. Broader Impact The charger also supports 800V electric passenger vehicles and vans, enabling multi-modal use at charging sites. Higher-power charging reduces dwell time and boosts fleet uptime, directly lowering total cost of ownership for operators. For charging station owners, increased utilization drives faster ROI and reduced operating costs. Availability The Kempower Mega Satellite Flex will launch in North America and Europe starting July. As Kempower North America President Monil Malhotra stated, the solution addresses the industry's urgent need for reliable, flexible MCS technology during heavy-duty electrification scaling.
