Stakeholder Collaboration in Action: Shaping the Future of Megawatt Charging Systems (MCS)

FLEXMCS brought together a diverse group of partners for an engaging workshop on high-power charging systems for heavy-duty vehicles (HDVs) on 13 February 2025.

This interactive session included charge point operators (CPOs), distribution system operators (DSOs), logistics providers, OEMs, hardware manufacturers, technology developers, and research institutions, all working together to define the future of megawatt charging infrastructure.

Key Insights from the Workshop

  • Optimizing Charging Hub Layouts – Partners shared ideas on how charging stations can best serve different operational needs, ensuring flexibility and efficiency.

  • Factors Influencing Charging Point Selection – Beyond energy costs, stakeholders explored how factors like charging speed, location, and accessibility impact decision-making.

  • Balancing HDV & Light Vehicle Charging – Strategies were discussed to prioritize charging allocations, maximizing utilization and economic sustainability.
