Charging Solutions has unveiled the EV Rescue, a portable charging unit, for electric vehicles.

The EV Rescue would enable an electric car to be charged on the spot, in case of total battery discharge, without the need for it to be towed to a charging point, according to Fleet News.

The product is set to get grant funding from the Department of Transport under the Plugged-In Places scheme.

James Jean-Louis, managing director of Charging Solutions, said that the unit can provide a car with enough charge to travel 15 miles with just 30 minutes of charging.

Jean-Louis added, “The EV Rescue is an innovative, standalone power unit for roadside assistance, remote locations, dealerships and repair facilities. “Connect it to mains power, and it acts as an EV charger for showrooms, car maintenance and distributors, exhibitions and forecourt, providing flexible portable power without the need for fixed charging points.”

The EV Rescue unit is equipped with a Type 2 socket with Mode 3 communication and operates on lithium-ion technology. It also comes with additional optional features that include a diagnostics communication module and a smartphone application feature.
