In February 2025, Alpitronic unveiled the HYC1000, a charging system in which the power modules are not housed in the charging columns – as is typical for the Italian manufacturer – but instead in a separate Power Cabinet.
This Power Cabinet contains eight Power Stacks, each rated at 125 kW, enabling a total charging power of up to one megawatt. The system distributes this power in 62.5-kW increments across as many as eight outputs. Alpitronic now specifies the efficiency of the Power Cabinet at up to 98.2 per cent, an improvement from the 97.5 per cent quoted at its launch.
Previously, the Power Cabinet supported three dispenser types: the MCS Dispenser with an MCS plug (maximum 1,500 A, 1,000 kW), optionally supplemented by a CCS plug (600 A, 600 kW); the HP Dispenser with a CCS plug for over 1,000 A and up to 1,000 kW; and the EV Dispenser with up to two CCS plugs (600 A, 600 kW). The new Depot Dispenser, specifically designed for charging e-bus and e-truck fleets at depots, is now joining the lineup.
Compact and flexible mounting
The Depot Dispenser differs visually from the other HYC1000 dispensers. Instead of a 2.32-metre-tall column weighing up to 350 kg, it features a compact housing measuring 600 × 400 × 250 mm. Depending on the configuration, this dispenser weighs up to 35 kg, excluding the charging cable.
