Use case · EV Charging

Run a 240 kW DC fast charger
on a 60 kW grid connection.

Battery-buffered charging decouples charger draw from grid capacity. Install fast chargers where the transformer can't keep up.

Power flow architecture

Solar in. Grid trickle.
Battery buffers the burst.

The Orixe BESS sits between the grid, solar PV, and the DC fast charger — discharging fast during a charging session and refilling slowly between cars.

FAST DISCHARGE SLOW GRID REFILL

Why buffer

The transformer is the bottleneck.

A 240 kW fast charger on a 60 kW grid connection would normally need an expensive upgrade. A buffered BESS solves it for less.

Without BESS

Grid-only DC charging

Charger output is capped by the weakest link in the chain — usually the transformer or the utility connection.

With Orixe BESS

Battery-buffered charging

Charger pulls from the battery, not the grid. Battery refills slowly from solar and trickle grid between sessions.

Deployments

Where battery-buffered charging fits.

Highway · 1.92 MW

Expressway charging hubs

Multi-bay 240 kW DCFC plazas on highway pull-offs. BESS absorbs the burst load of 6–8 simultaneous vehicles without provoking the grid.

Fleet · 480 kW

Bus & truck depots

Overnight depot charging for fleet operators. Time-of-use arbitrage pays for the system in 3–4 years.

Retail · 120 kW

Mall & retail forecourts

A 120 kW system delivers two simultaneous 60 kW fast-charge ports without re-trenching MV cable.
