The e-Mobility sector is now highly active, particularly in the non-road mobile machinery (NRMM) segment. New projects are continuously emerging, driving the demand for advanced power distribution solutions that support high power loads while ensuring efficiency and safety.
Keeping up with the trends
Several key trends are shaping the industry, influencing the development of next-generation power distribution solutions. One significant trend is the shift toward higher power levels reaching the megawatt range to meet the increasing demands of electrification. This movement is especially evident in heavy-duty applications, where efficient power distribution and conversion play a critical role.
In addition to higher power demands, functional safety is becoming a major focus in power distribution systems. Future regulatory requirements and compliance efforts are pushing the industry to integrate safety measures proactively. Investments in functional safety ensure compliance with evolving standards, reinforcing reliability and risk mitigation in power electronics applications.
Smart power management
To address these evolving needs, Epec is expanding its PDU portfolio to provide versatile solutions that support a wide range of applications. Epec’s PDUs can seamlessly integrate with machine control systems, enabling smart power distribution that significantly enhances operational efficiency.
Another key development is the charging communication within PDUs. The integration of the Combined Charging System (CCS) and Megawatt Charging System communication protocols, in accordance with ISO 15118, will improve interoperability and efficiency in high-power charging infrastructure. These advancements will enable seamless communication between charging power systems and electric vehicles, optimising performance and user experience. Epec remains committed to meeting the highest safety and performance standards. Currently, Epec products comply with IEC 62477 standards for electrical safety, certified by TÜV. This ensures protection against electrical hazards and aligns with industry best practices. As we continue to innovate, our focus remains on enhancing safety, efficiency, and regulatory compliance in all our solutions.
