The bidirectional DC wallbox from KOSTAL – fast and smart electromobility

The bidirectional DC wallbox from KOSTAL features a charging power of 11 kW, making fast charging possible. In addition, bidirectional charging allows the energy stored in the car to be fed back into the grid and enables the V2H and V2G function to be used.
As a white label provider of wallboxes, KOSTAL develops and produces the DC wallbox in line with customer-specific requirements.
