FERCHAU GmbH becomes a core member of CharIN.

As a new member of CharIN, FERCHAU GmbH has joined the ranks of a global network which establishes charging standards for all kinds of electric vehicles.

The network of more than 260 car manufacturers, suppliers and energy companies is pursuing the goal of making electric vehicle charging smoother, simpler and more reliable. For this purpose the initiative is pursuing an integrated approach and in the past three years has extended its field of application to include both private cars and commercial vehicles. This also involves establishing a megawatt charging system (MCS), which would also be used in the future for charging heavy-duty vehicles, such as e-ferries, ships and aircraft.

FERCHAU sees the CharIN as the ideal opportunity to work on an equal footing with international companies in the industry and to be active in introducing its expertise. By virtue of its many years of experience in the field of developing and standardising the charging infrastructure, FERCHAU is able to function as a catalyst for development concepts for electric travel.

"Electro-mobility will only become a reality if we work together. With the global standard being advocated by the CharIN based on the combined charging system (CCS), we are taking a major step in the right direction.”
Christian Rudolph, Chief Operating Officer of FERCHAU Automotive

The CharIN was founded in 2015 and is directed at companies all over the world, which are active in the field of e-mobility. Since the end of April 2022 the Verband der Automobilindustrie (VDA) e. V. [German Association of the Automotive Industry] is also cooperating with the initiative.

FERCHAU GmbH currently employs 7,500 engineers, IT consultants, technicians and technical product designers in more than 100 branches and in more than 100 technical offices and project groups (status: 31.12.2021). FERCHAU is active in the following eight technology branches: IT, automotive engineering, electronic engineering, mechanical engineering, aerospace engineering, plant construction, marine engineering, pharmaceuticals and the life sciences
