This retail fueling giant is about to integrate DC fast charging at a lot of gas stations [Video]

Gas pump and convenience store equipment technology giant Gilbarco Veeder-Root (GVR) has launched a DC fast charging system that can be seamlessly integrated into its retailers’ gas stations.

GVR, which has over 500,000 installations globally, co-developed the turnkey Konect DC fast charging system with EV charging tech company SK Signet. Seoul-based SK Signet will manufacture the EV charging equipment in the US and Korea.

Konect assists with site selection, funding options, and point-of-sale equipment. It provides hardware and software solutions, integrates onsite energy storage, and sets up loyalty schemes. 

Konect’s DC fast charging system isn’t designed to be shoved in the back of the gas station on a separate network – it’s integrated into GVR’s existing full-site fueling payment and service systems.

GVR’s network connects multiple onsite cloud-based services, from point-of-sale payment and loyalty systems to localized energy management and off-grid charging solutions.
