CCS charging

What is CCS Charging?

The Combined Charging System uses a Type 1 or Type 2 base with two DC pins to deliver AC and DC charging through one vehicle inlet.

Why CCS Charging Matters

• Universality: Widely adopted.

• Speed: Enables high power.

• Simplicity: One port for both.

• Interoperability: Common protocols.

How It Works

CCS ecosystems analyze:

• Charging handshake.

• Cable temperatures.

• Payment flows.

• Site demand.

Control systems manage:

• Power negotiation.

• Thermal derating.

• Roaming across networks.

Key Technologies

• CCS1 and CCS2 connectors.

• ISO 15118 and DIN standards.

• Liquid-cooled cables.

• OCPP backends.

• Certified meters.

Applications

• Highways.

• Urban hubs.

• Fleet depots.

• Cross-border travel.

Benefits

• Predictable sessions.

• Broad availability.

• Easier planning.

• Reliable standards.

Use Cases

• Road-trip charging.

• Depot sharing.

• Retail fast charging.

• OEM planning.

Callout: One port fits any journey. CCS makes fast charging familiar.
