The company "National Charging Systems", part of the "Rusclimat" holding, has launched the production of charging stations for electric vehicles. The devices are built into the wall. They can be used in covered parking lots of residential buildings.
Free stations in the parking lot can be synchronized with each other so that the electric vehicle charges faster. The devices are protected from unauthorized access.
Charging stations are produced in the Udmurt city of Sarapul. The plan for 2024 is to produce more than three thousand devices.
