“With its upgradability and dynamic charging, it is a big step forward to support the future of eMobility,” said Siemens Smart Infrastructure Global Head of Future Grids, Birgit Dargel.
“Our customers can be sure to be prepared for future eventualities of eMobility, be it increasing number of required charging options or increasing charging speeds.
“At the same time, it is one of the most efficient fast chargers currently available on the market – an important aspect since building sustainable mobility requires careful handling of the scarce resources we are using.”
With a constant efficiency of above 95.5% and a peak efficiency of 96%, the Sicharge D ensures almost all the generated electricity reaches the car to be charged.

By GlobalDataThe charger is designed to meet future technological developments. Even if the charging capacities of most electric vehicles are still limited today, they will be able to accept higher charging power in the future and demand higher voltage ranges, says Siemens.
The Sicharge D has a scalable charging power up to 300 kW, either from the start or through plug-and-play upgrades. The charger already supports voltages between 150 and 1,000 volts (V) and currents of up to 1,000 amperes (A) across all DC outlets. This enables full power loads for future Siemens 800 V vehicles as well as the lower voltage charging rates demanded by mainstream vehicles.
With the option to expand the Sicharge D with up to two external dispensers, it is possible for customers to time the investments according to market demands. The standard configuration has two DC and one AC outlet.
The new charger combines these features with dynamic parallel charging. That means it accounts for the individual power demand of each connected car and automatically adapts the charging process to the EV’s battery technology and charging status.
This ensures the connected cars get the maximum power they need without any additional manual intervention.
