Partnership will facilitate the development of a federally funded coast-to-coast EV charging network

TORRANCE, Calif., Oct. 25, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tritium DCFC Limited (Tritium) (Nasdaq: DCFC), a global leader in direct current (DC) fast chargers for electric vehicles (EVs), today announced its partnership with EV supply equipment manufacturer DC-America. DC-America is now offering its versatile charging station infrastructure equipped with Tritium's industry-leading fast chargers, creating an efficient and effective EV charging system. This solution is expected to be both compliant with federal Buy America standards and eligible for National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) Formula Program funding.

DC-America's modular, skid-based charging systems allow for rapid deployment, with minimal onsite disruption and a simplified permitting process. With the ability to upgrade and expand over time, the company's systems are suited for highway corridor charging locations and provide the flexibility that today's rapidly growing EV charging sites demand. DC-America is now offering customers its system equipped with Tritium's uniquely modular and scalable 150kW DC fast charger, the PKM150.

DC-America's system and Tritium's chargers are anticipated to comply with the U.S. Federal Highway Administration's (FWHA) proposed Buy America requirements following the opening of Tritium's global manufacturing facility in Lebanon, Tennessee in August. The combined DC-America and Tritium solution is expected to qualify for all 52 state and territory NEVI programs, which are funded by the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, also known as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. The NEVI program will allocate $5 billion over five years toward developing a convenient, reliable, and affordable EV charger network nationwide.

The Biden-Harris administration announced its approval of all 50 states, D.C., and Puerto Rico's Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Deployment Plans, totaling more than $1.5 billion in NEVI Formula funding in September. According to the U.S. Joint Office of Energy and Transportation, this investment will help to build EV chargers across more than 75,000 miles of highway nationwide.
