XCharge North America has announced the installation of its C6AM solution at the town hall of Middleburg, Virginia, marking the town’s first DC fast charger (DCFC) and enhancing EV travel around the greater Washington, D.C., and Virginia areas.
The C6AM charger station features two charging ports capable of delivering a 150kW output to vehicles, significantly reducing idle time compared to Level 2 chargers. This efficiency makes it a valuable addition for Middleburg residents and visitors traveling with EVs.
Designed for the United States grid, the DCFC solution can be seamlessly installed and operated on 208v or 480v infrastructure, eliminating the need for major construction upgrades. The C6AM also includes NACS plugs and CCS1 cables to support all EV models, ensuring accessibility and convenience.
Middleburg and XCharge NA collaborated through Virginia Clean Cities (VCC) to support the town’s green initiatives. The town hall’s recent redesign to embrace sustainability made it an ideal location for the DCFC charger.
Lynne Kaye, Chair of Middleburg’s Sustainability Committee, expressed excitement about the new EV charging station: “The DC fast charging station is available to the public in the Middleburg town hall parking lot. The charger can provide charging for two vehicles. The Town would like to thank Virginia Clean Cities for introducing us to XCharge North America with whom we have partnered to offer charging with their C6AM solution.”
Middleburg, located near Washington, D.C., attracts high tourism levels from day and weekend travelers. The XCharge NA deployment strategically electrifies a busy travel corridor, benefiting both residents and visitors and supporting the town’s efforts to improve its EV and sustainability infrastructure.
XCharge North America President Aatish Patel highlighted the significance of the deployment: “This deployment is a significant step in electrifying the country’s EV charging deserts in a major travel corridor. It provides accessible, public EV charging for Middleburg residents and visitors.”
Matthew Wade, Deputy Director of Virginia Clean Cities, emphasized the project’s contribution to transportation electrification: “This project will demonstrate the success of electric vehicle charging in critical travel communities to pave the way for more installations throughout the Commonwealth. The relationship between XCharge North America, the Town of Middleburg, and VCC is built on the hope that this charging station will expand the zero-emission journey for all EV drivers and generate more interest in transportation electrification in Virginia.”
