Constanta installed five 300 kW HVC-PD (Heavy Vehicle Charger Pantograph Down) and twenty 50 kW Terra 54 HV fast charging stations to power its BYD electric bus fleet. The Terra 54 HV supply power to charge buses in the depot overnight, while the 300 kW HVC chargers safeguard maximum vehicle availability by enabling fast charging during the day, both in the depot and at the end of the route.

The ABB E-mobility solution installed in Constanta is characterized by both high performance and uptime. The chargers are already equipped to support the electric buses of the future with 920 VDC charging capabilities. These features have been proven by ABB E-mobility in other European countries such as Germany, Sweden, Norway, and France.

“It has always been our intention to offer our customers tailored solutions characterized by a high level of safety and reliability. Together with our partners, we are happy to support Constanta towards cleaner and more sustainable public transportation and to contribute to the evolution of the e-mobility landscape in Romania”, says Erhan Savas, ABB's Vice President of Commercial, Electrification, Romania.
