Siemens SICHARGE FLEX
Siemens eMobility's megawatt charging system, first on its IAA stand: one power cabinet of 480 to 1,680 kW feeds up to six CCS or MCS dispensers (up to four MCS, 1,500 A) placed up to 300 m away, shifting power in 80 or 120 kW steps. On sale from 2026; OMV ordered the first one for Kufstein in Austria.
