ZAPINAMO HUBZ™
COVENTRY, England, Nov. 16, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- ZAPINAMO
(pronounced ZAP-IN-A-MO), a Coventry based Electric Vehicle [EV] Charging
infrastructure innovations company, has developed a patented EV
Charging system utilising Battery Stored energy to 'Power Boost' a
nominal Grid supply into a rapid or ultra-fast charge unit. This
reduces the amount of time it takes to replenish the EV battery.
Typically, a home charge unit will provide 4 miles of charge per 30
minutes into the EV battery, whereas a ZAPINAMO HUBZ unit
power boosts it to 50 miles in 30 minutes from a domestic
supply.
The ZAPINAMO HUBZ product range is created out of a modular
system which can expand capabilities as the EV parc
develops. www.zapinamo.com
Being able to Power Boost a normal 3 or 7kW supply to enable
delivery speeds of not just 50kW but upward of 350kW to meet the EV
market's emerging high-speed charging needs and wants. ZAPINAMO
HUBZ already deliver 50 miles of range in just 30 minutes from
battery stored renewables and trickled grid supply.
ZAPINAMO WAS THE ONLY EV CHARGING COMPANY INVITED TO THE
FIRST BRITISH ZEV SUMMIT
This is developed out of patent protected innovation in power
electronics and battery storage with advanced processes enabled
through InnovateUK and collaboration with industry and academic
partners including WMG, at the University of
Warwick, who is one of the founding consortium partners for
the UK Battery Industrialisation Centre.
RAPID HOME CHARGING IS THE HOLY GRAIL
Until now, charging a large battery EV at home has been simply
slow and impractical. Typically a home charger will provide about
4 miles of driving range for every 30 minutes it's plugged
in claims ZAPINAMO However the ZAPINAMO HOMEHUBZ system aims to
provide up to 50 miles of range in the same time.
The HUBZ base unit will Power Boost a normal household supply to
provide increased power and also utilise a 'Community' energy model
to collate and distribute energy when required.
ZAPINAMO hopes to also transform a kerb mounted 7kW Charge
point in to a Rapid STREETHUBZ unit without further substation
upgrade, support or planning, and will work well in commercial
depots where substation upgrades can run into hundreds of thousands
of pounds of unforeseen costs.
SAVES SPACE AS WELL AS TIME
The PARKHUBZ unit is ergonomically designed to 'fit' in to the
corner of car parking bays without reducing vehicle access or
taking more than a parking bay. This is typically a 20% reduction
in a normal car park for traditional rapid charge units when
implemented. With PARKHUBZ it's zero tolerance to oversized space
consuming charge units.
ZERO TOLERANCE FOR AIR QUALITY
ZAPINAMO aims to improve air quality and therefore public
health. As well as saving billions in healthcare costs.
The ZAPINAMO technology already in operation at HEATHROW Airport shows an estimated saving of
over 22 tons of CO2 emissions in the last 3 months and
continues to power EV Private Hire and Taxis, all day every
day.
The introduction of ZAPINAMO HUBZ provides the world with a
healthy alternative to traditional EV charging. Extending the reach
of renewable energy and even home and community distributed micro
solutions through the most thorough connectivity developed for the
EV world.
ZAPINAMO introduces EVIE™, the Electric Vehicle Information
Exchange system which uses 'Herringbone' AI and ML techniques to
reach the most distant of information sources to capture
availability of energy and maximise it for the end user needs.
Satisfying DNO, Commercial and Domestic users.

BOILERPLATE:
ZAPINAMO offers world class innovation in the development of
Electric Vehicle [EV] Charging Infrastructure, which performs like
no other. ZAPINAMO seeks to be a major global player in all things
stored energy and electric vehicle charging infrastructure and to
this aim has received great support from being showcased at the
British Government first ZEV Summit in 2018 and via InnovateUK
funding opportunities for research and development.
Utilising Battery stored energy and combining it with renewable
and other economical energy sources, ZAPINAMO patented technology
'Power Boosts' a poor or low Grid supply to be able to perform at
much higher speeds and deliver energy quicker to EVs. The ZAPINAMO
technology also requires little or no groundworks, no grid upgrades
or special supply, a simple household socket can do.
The combination of innovation, battery technologies and power
electronics provides a transformative tool for the new EV market
and its accelerating growth and impact on air quality
globally..
