Boyd engineers, in partnership with E-valucon, designed a liquid-to-air cooling system for DC Fast Charging (DCFC) cables and connectors that accelerate safe and sustainable charging. Green coolants ensure the liquid cooled technology is environmentally friendly. Boyd cooling systems are built in-region for EV charging station infrastructure buildouts in North America, Europe, and Asia Pacific.

“Creating or using power makes heat. Doing this more rapidly and in a small space severely compounds that effect,” said Boyd chief commercial officer, Shammy Khan. “Drivers want faster charge cycles and infrastructure planners need space-saving solutions. Rapid, high-power charging in tight spaces creates a significant thermal challenge. Our liquid systems reliably meet those market demands with a solution that reduces thermal safety concerns in fast charging stations.”

Boyd addresses regional manufacturing needs for this dynamic market as part of its commitment to champion customer success. The US Department of Transportation and Federal Highway Administration’s National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) formula program phases a Buy America standard into requirements starting July 2024. NEVI funds US$5 billion for the deployment of publicly accessible EV charging infrastructure across the US. Boyd and E-valucon have collaborated to meet US requirements for Buy America, combining Boyd’s liquid cooling technology with E-valucon’s fast charging system.

"Boyd’s expertise in thermal solutions and E-valucon’s expertise in EV coupler solutions equip us to support the rapid deployment of reliable and accessible fast charging systems in America,” said E-valucon COO Madison Ahn.

    Key steps to make EV fleet adoption move even faster
    The EV industry is continually buzzing about adoption – much of it geared toward passenger vehicles. Will the public buy in, literally and figuratively? Are EV purchases on track? Will consumers overcome the anxiety that their vehicle’s battery charge will be insufficient to complete a journey or that there will not be enough charging stations on the way to their destination? As these questions are being asked about passenger vehicles, fleets are quietly moving toward EV adoption.
