The charger complies with UK government edicts for random delay and off peak charging and also offer solar charging and load balancing functions if needed.
The company will contract installers and initially offer EV charging via a website in the UK but operate through local sales and distribution networks in Germany.
Commercial grade chargers will follow.
Kim Nam-woo, head of overseas sales, said: “Humax will use its own technology and global overseas sales network to build new business growth in the charger market, based on its recognition as the leading brand in the global set top box market.”
