AddVolt presents the World's 1st plug-in electric-hybrid system

AddVolt EV Powerbank wants to facilitate electric battery charging; as such, it developed a powerbank in Porto, currently not available for purchase, but soon it might be available.

This powerbank is easily transportable and also aims at providing electric cars and plug-in hybrids a mobile loader, which is a fast charger and does not need infrastructure. This is the AddVolt EV Powerbank.

The goal is that these powerbanks can be carried in the vehicles and are placed in strategic places as well, such as airports, gas stations, supermarkets and shopping and leisure centres.

Addvolt was incubated at the Science and Technology Park of the University of Porto- UPTEC, in 2014 by four engineers of the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Porto (FEUP).

Addvolt has developed the first plug-in electric system for the transport system. The start up's patented technology electrifies refrigeration units, by reducing fuel (diesel or gasoline) dependence, noise level and carbon emissions.

The company's main objective is to create "green cities, contributing to the wellbeing of both car drivers and citizens", by making electric power available to everyone in the transport sector and boosting the decarbonisation of refrigerated trailers and containers. Now this will facilitate the use of private electric vehicles.
