This indicates the minimum number of chargers at EVgo&#8217;s new charging sites in the future (at least as sites that are eligible for such a layout).<\/p>\n<p>The time and cost savings are the foundation, but not the only benefit of prefabrication. EVgo also points out that the customer experience might improve as well. That&#8217;s because of the higher reliability of the equipment assembly in a controlled environment and pre-commissioned at the fabrication facility.<\/p>\n<p>The company explains that &#8220;all charging equipment\u2014including dispensers, power cabinets and any additional necessary equipment\u2014is assembled in a single base frame before being shipped to the fast charging site. By using this process wherever possible, EVgo expects to accelerate timelines while ensuring consistent, high-quality assembly in a controlled environment. This approach also allows EVgo to perform pre-commissioning at the fabrication facility, which is anticipated to further accelerate deployment timelines.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the prefabricated charging stations can be easily equipped with additional features, according to each order (right from the start or retrofitted at a later point). The list of optional features includes:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: disc;\">\n<li>Wi-Fi infrastructure that can be added seamlessly to boost cellular connectivity<\/li>\n<li>lighting<\/li>\n<li>security cameras<\/li>\n<li>canopies to offer shade on sunny days and shield drivers from inclement weather<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Once installed, the skid frame will be covered with synthetic turf, providing a layer of cushioning to help safeguard connectors that may be dropped, EVgo adds.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, we are happy to see that the EV charging industry is applying new solutions to improve its business, which is important considering that the infrastructure must be significantly expanded in the coming decade \u2013 potentially by an order of magnitude between now and 2030.<\/p>\n<p>There is a reason why Tesla started to use prefabricated systems in volume a few years ago:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.motor1.com\/images\/static\/16x9-tr.png\"><\/p>\n<p>Tesla Prefabricated Supercharger Unit (PSU)<\/p>\n<h2><span><svg class=\"arrow-heading\"><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/insideevs.com\/design\/dist\/critical\/icons\/sprite-common-0-dc6b7de11d922cb73553899f27128303.svg#sqr-arrow\"\/><\/svg><\/span>First station in February 2024<\/h2>\n<p>EVgo revealed that the first site to use its prefabricated DC fast chargers is located in Texas and is anticipated to begin construction this November.
