Transportation Electric Bus Charging Columns

The Future Coming.
The public transportation industry is on the verge of a monumental shift from diesel to electric power. Electric buses are
becoming more and more common across the European Continent. This trend is expected to continue as cities and
countries search for ways to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions.

As a result, Valmont has worked closely with market leading power conversion experts like Heliox to develop a comprehensive
range of Electric Bus charging solutions.

Flexibility To Meet The Needs Of Your City.
Column based bus charging stations come in two main forms. Both designs rely on the pantograph system which has a
long standing record of reliability. The main difference is the location of the pantograph.

Valmont proudly offers charging solutions for both column mounted and vehicle mounted pantographs. Our charging
columns have been carefully designed for easy installation followed by years of worry free service.

Valmont has worked closely with market leading power conversion experts to design a comprehensive range of Electric Bus
charging solutions. Our solutions are designed to rapidly and safely charge electric buses either on route or at the depo.

OppCharge interface. In this design, all moving parts are
housed in the column. The automatic interface is based
on established industry standards, with the intention of
supporting a common charging interface primarily for
commercial vehicles.

Multiple arm lengths are available.
Standard clearance height of 4.5m.
