Integrated with the Wevolt software platform, these chargers offer seamless monitoring and management capabilities, ensuring efficient operation and user convenience.
Client Requirement
The client, a lodge offering short-stay accommodation for businesses, sought to enhance their sustainability efforts and cater to the increasing number of electric vehicles used by their guests in the area. Their goal was to install a reliable and high-capacity EV charging system that could support both their internal guests and potentially, in the future, the general public.
Magellan Power Solution
Magellan Power was approached to deliver a comprehensive EV charging solution tailored to the client’s specific needs. After a thorough assessment, we supplied two 120kW Fast DC Chargers and two 22kW 3PH AC chargers. These chargers were chosen for their efficiency, reliability and ability to handle the varying demands of the lodge’s guests.
In addition to the hardware, Magellan Power provided the Wevolt software platform, a powerful tool for managing and optimising the use of EV chargers. As an authorized reseller of Wevolt, we ensured that the client could monitor and control their charging infrastructure with ease, enabling them to offer a seamless experience to their users.
This solution not only supports the client’s sustainability initiatives but also positions them to accommodate the growing demand for electric vehicles, both from their guests and potentially the wider community in Pilbara Region.
