As a UK manufacturing leader with over six years of expertise in DC rapid and ultra-rapid charging, Rolec proudly launches its upgraded UltraCharge range, in a strategic partnership with EVbee. The collaboration brings together two forward-thinking companies with a shared mission: to accelerate the rollout of EV infrastructure.
EVbee, a high-profile Dutch design and engineering company, renowned for its award-winning user-centric EV charging technology, has a strong presence across Europe and a commitment, shared by Rolec, to operational excellence and modular, intelligent solutions.
Now, as a combined force in the charge towards large-scale EV adoption, Rolec and EVbee have announced 4 new additions to the UltraCharge range. The result is a more well-rounded and premium package, better supported, and more future proof.
Launched to serve a broader spectrum of commercial and public sector applications, offering wider power outputs, from 40kW to 1.6MW+, and greater flexibility to meet diverse site requirements, the new UltraCharge range is here. Without losing the most competitive DC range status, Rolec have upgraded the standard specifications, including improved LCD screens and advanced cable management solutions, a major advantage to Rolec’s offering.
Frankie Mellon, Managing Director at Rolec, said: “Both companies have a strong green tech synergy and a shared focus on DC expansion and agile design. A common drive for compact, modular, and user-friendly unit design, remote diagnostics, and adaptable mounting options, enables faster and more versatile deployment. Backed by Rolec’s UK-based technical support, localised industry experience, and nationwide installer network. Rolec actively seeks out innovative partners who are working closely with R&D, technology, people, and progress. EVbee perfectly fits that vision.”
Dr. Tao Yang, Founder and CTO of EVbee, added: “Partnering with Rolec was a natural choice for EVbee. Their strong presence in the UK and trusted reputation in the industry align perfectly with our ambition to push innovation to the next level. We share a common drive for quality, adaptability, and intelligent design, which makes this collaboration both exciting and impactful. We’re confident this partnership will not only accelerate the adoption of DC charging but also lead to many more pioneering projects together in the UK.”
Rolec’s offering is now even more compelling, with an improved standard specification that delivers greater value without increasing costs. Installers will be pleased to know the new units offer a smaller footprint and easier installation, from initial configuration to continued maintenance and servicing. Firmly cementing Rolec as a commercial charging powerhouse.
Packing a lot of juice into a smaller unit, the UltraCharge 40 is a compact, sophisticated, and low-investment DC charger delivering up to 40kW. Ideal for small businesses, workshops, and workplaces requiring rapid charging. Either wall or post mounted, this charger is comfortable in any commercial space.
All of this makes it well suited as an option for fleet and public charging. With contactless payment options to combine speedy charging with seamless payment.
A familiar name in their scalable DC range, the UltraCharge 80 is a great option for businesses looking to future-proof their charging network, now with a sleeker look. This is a dual output model with intelligent power sharing. Best suited for busy commercial and public transport sites, dealerships, and depots.
This unit delivers up to 80kW of charging potential and maximises space without limiting power – offering dual charging capabilities using intelligent, dynamic power sharing via 5m 250A Peak and 150A Nominal charging cables capable of delivering 80kW charge rate to a standard 400V vehicle. Adaptively designating charge to the vehicle with less battery.
The UltraCharge 180 is a high-performance charger built for high-traffic environments such as motorways, retail outlets and shopping centres, featuring an integrated advertising screen as standard for additional ROI. Capable of simultaneous vehicle charging via dual 5m 350A peak and 250A nominal CCS2 universal charging cables. Fully tolerant to the needs of your site, the unit can be up or downgraded in 30kW increments from 120kW up to 180kW of power.
Like the rest of the range, the UltraCharge 180 is fitted with the latest safety features, including under/over voltage, DC overcurrent, over-temp and surge protection and built-in 30mA Type A RCD protection as standard, IK10 impact protection rating and IP54 weatherproofing.
The UltraCharge 400 delivers ultra-rapid charging at scale, with modular power upgrades from 200kW up to 400kW, supporting dual-vehicle charging. Thanks to its 150V-1000V dual power output segment, the unit has an improved power utilisation ratio, speeding up charging times and maximising revenue by decreasing vehicle downtime. Additionally, this means the UltraCharge 400 can not only meet the low voltage charging needs of conventional EVs but also meet the requirements for charging larger commercial vehicles such as HGVs, electric trucks, buses and boats. Delivering up to 80% charge in under 10 minutes.
Each unit is built for reliable performance, with future-ready connectivity (Wi-Fi, ethernet and 4G), and full compliance with PAS 1899 standards, making it easy to use for every EV driver.
For additional flexibility to your network, charging can be controlled either via ISO15118 plug & charge, RFID, any OCPP app of your preference, or contactless payment for pay-to-charge functionality.
Frequent over-the-air updates also allows the chargers to receive the very latest features, ensuring a resilient, secure and available product 24/7. While robust construction, and versatile mounting options ensure broad site compatibility. All models integrate effortlessly with Rolec’s 40+ charge point management partners, supporting businesses and organisations of every size and scale with your needs.
“Our new UltraCharge lineup reflects Rolec’s commitment to delivering flexible, cost-efficient, and future-focused solutions that meet the evolving demands of fleet and public EV infrastructure. We’ve upgraded the standard specifications while maintaining competitive pricing. This portfolio combines advanced functionality with a broader range of power outputs – designed to maximise performance, scalability, and ROI. We’re proud to offer an improved solution that gives our customers long-term value and complete confidence as they power the future with us.” – Frankie Mellon.
