“The overall design and engineering of this product is very well
considered. The charging system has multiple benefits — single
technician installation, slim-line profile, fast charge (75km range
in 10 minutes),” commented the Good Design Awards engineering
design jury. “The RTM EV charger design is a good example of clean,
sophisticated and functional design and engineering that will help
reduce a key barrier to EV market expansion. Really impressive
project and a standout example of good design in this category that
deserves to be recognised. Well done.”
The RTM is a modular and upgradeable DC fast charger capable of
rapidly powering more than one EV of any model at a time. The
charger gives businesses the flexibility of a charger that can
scale from 25kW to 50kW and 75kW.
“A clean aesthetic and well considered design. The installation
time of only 2 hours is impressive, as is the consideration of the
user experience with the visual display and slimline design,” said
the Good Design Awards product design jury. “It's fast, easy to use
and customisable. It will be an increasingly important and
sought-after product as EVs gain traction in the market. A clean
design that complements the functionality of the unit very
well.”
The Australian Good Design Awards are one of the longest-running
international design awards, promoting excellence in design and
innovation since 1958. Recognized by the World Design Organization
(WDO) as Australia’s peak international design endorsement and
promotion program, these awards represent the diverse spectrum of
design with 12 specific design disciplines covering more than 30
categories and sub-categories.
“We are excited to receive these awards as it validates
Tritium’s industry-leading product design and Modular Scalable
Charging architecture, which was launched in 2020,” said Tritium
CEO Jane Hunter. “To achieve widespread adoption of electric
transportation, there needs to be infrastructure in place that not
only makes charging a vehicle convenient, but financially
beneficial for the site owner. With our product design, we give our
customers truly scalable technology that grows with their
site.”
Each year, the program attracts new and innovative design
projects worldwide, celebrating the best in all areas of design,
architecture, engineering, research, and social innovation.
“Receiving an Australian Good Design Award is testament to
embedding design excellence at the heart of a product, service,
place or experience. Although 2021 continues to be another
challenging year, it is incredibly inspiring to see designers and
businesses working together to find innovative, customer-centric
design solutions to local and global challenges and to see them
recognised and rewarded for their efforts through these prestigious
Awards,” said Dr. Brandon Gien, CEO of Good Design Australia. “The
importance of embracing good design principles is now more
important than ever as many businesses around the world have had to
completely re-think their business strategies to remain
competitive. The standard of design excellence represented in this
year’s Awards is the best I’ve ever seen in my 25 years of running
these Awards, an encouraging sign that the design sector is
flourishing.”
With installation in under two hours, single-person field
serviceability, DC meter data insights, and many customization
options available, the RTM fast charger helps reduce setup,
operation, and maintenance costs to increase our customers’ return
on investment. The RTM also provides a fast charge and improves the
refueling experience with driver-friendly features like intuitive
screen flows and charger statistics, and Plug and Charge which
enables EVs and chargers to communicate, authenticate, and transact
via the charging cable, eliminating the need for a credit card
reader, RFID card or QR Code. The award-winning RTM design is
expected to be carried through Tritium’s upcoming products with the
same thoughtfully designed enclosure and common components.
