Motorcar Parts of America, Inc. (Nasdaq: MPAA) today announced its wholly owned subsidiary D&V Electronics USA has received notification that its high-power direct current emulator is being utilized in the development program of an extreme fast EV charger spearheaded by Delta Electronics’ automotive division and sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy.
The charger is expected to have up to 400kW capacity to provide an approximately 180-mile range for electric vehicles with less than ten minutes of charging time.
The bi-directional battery emulator plays a key role in the development of this extreme charging system by allowing engineers to test multiple input voltages and varying loads along with simulating vehicle-to-grid scenarios.
