BRUSSELS, Belgium, Oct 7, 2025 – Siemens has introduced SICHARGE FLEX, a distributed electric vehicle (EV) charging system built for flexibility, scalability, and cost efficiency. The modular design supports fleet, depot, and en-route charging, helping businesses expand infrastructure as demand grows. By combining reliability with adaptable architecture, SICHARGE FLEX strengthens Siemens’ position in smart infrastructure and electric mobility.

The Right Power at The Right Outlet at the Right Time

SICHARGE FLEX introduces new levels of technical performance and operational flexibility. Its power distribution system allocates energy dynamically across multiple charging points based on vehicle demand. All power groups can route to any outlet, supporting a total range from 480 kW to more than 1.68 MW. Power is delivered in 80/120 kW increments for efficient energy use. The system supports both CCS and MCS charging standards and can host up to four MCS charge points per installation. Each MCS dispenser delivers up to 1,500 A, enabling rapid charging for heavy-duty trucks, electric city buses, and overland vehicles.

The system offers high power density, within a compact footprint (up to 656 kW/m2). Dispensers can be installed up to 300 meters from the main power cabinet, providing flexible layout options. They can be floor-mounted with minimal space requirements (0.1 m2 for CCS and 0.2 m2 for MCS), configured as wall-mounted or overhead units to flexibly fit any site.

“The introduction of SICHARGE FLEX marks a significant milestone in our journey to build a comprehensive and sustainable E-Mobility ecosystem,” said Markus Mildner, CEO eMobility, Siemens Smart Infrastructure. “This solution embodies our vision for a future where EV charging is not only fast and reliable, but also seamlessly integrated and highly efficient. SICHARGE FLEX empowers our customers to confidently scale their operations, optimize energy use, and contribute to a cleaner, more electrified world.”

The SICHARGE FLEX family features a design that simplifies installation and maintenance. It integrates with Siemens’ eMobility ecosystem. The Sifinity control platform provides monitoring and remote management of charging infrastructure, helping operators maximize uptime and efficiency. It supports customization from installation setup to display configuration.

Integration with DepotFinity optimizes fleet charging, while SICHARGE FLEX power distribution lowers infrastructure costs and ensures steady performance.

Early Market Adoption and Customer Confidence

Even before its release, SICHARGE FLEX gained attention from industry partners. OMV, a charge-point operator (CPO) and mobility service provider (MSP) based in Vienna, has ordered the system for a new site in Kufstein, Austria. Located along the A12 corridor between Germany and Italy, the site will support passenger cars, electric trucks, and buses. Kufstein includes a fueling station, making it accessible for both regional and long-haul traffic. In the first phase, six charging points will be installed. The number will expand to ten once the local Distribution System Operator (DSO) reinforces the grid.

“At OMV, our mission is to provide our customers with reliable, high-performance charging infrastructure that meets the demands of modern mobility – today and tomorrow. The new site in Kufstein is a prime example of how we combine strategic location planning with cutting-edge technology to deliver real value: fast charging for eTrucks, eBuses and passenger cars, seamless user experience, and future-ready scalability,” said Eric Schulze, senior vice president retail mobility & convenience, OMV. “As both a Charge Point Operator and Mobility Service Provider, we are proud to be the first to bring this system into operation and to continue leading the way in sustainable transport solutions across Central Europe.”

Commitment to Sustainability and Trust

SICHARGE FLEX improves power distribution and grid balance, supporting sustainable energy use and greater network stability. SICHARGE FLEX follows Siemens’ “Security by Design” principles, using encryption and secure boot to protect data and maintain system integrity.

Availability

SICHARGE FLEX was officially launched at Busworld 2025 in Brussels. The product will be available for purchase in 2026, with Siemens eMobility to support customers in deploying the charging solution across various applications including transportation/logistic companies, CPOs and OEMs.
