AMPECO and i-charging partner for compliant DC charging in the United States

ATLANTA, GA, UNITED STATES, May 29, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- AMPECO, a global leader in EV charging management software and i-charging, an innovative high-power DC charging hardware manufacturer, announced a strategic partnership to deliver fully NTEP/CTEP-compliant charging solutions. While the partnership spans business opportunities globally, the compliance addresses United States regulatory requirements.

Integrating i-charging's DC hardware with AMPECO's comprehensive software platform supports Charge Point Operators (CPOs) in meeting the stringent regulatory requirements for commercial charging infrastructure throughout the U.S. market, with particular attention to California's enhanced standards.
The partnership addresses the now-implemented NIST Handbook 44 (HB 44) requirements for EV charging equipment across the United States. Since January 1, 2025, states nationwide have enforced these metering and pricing transparency standards, with California's CTEP program maintaining particularly stringent compliance verification.

"With regulatory requirements now fully in effect, CPOs must ensure their networks meet compliance standards," said Michael Greenberg, SVP of Growth at AMPECO. "As a trusted CPMS provider, we're fully attuned to the federal requirements that shape the landscape. Our cutting-edge solution is engineered to seamlessly integrate with NTEP/CTEP standards, guaranteeing a compliant and future-proof approach."

The i-charging DC chargers, which are already CTEP certified and now integrated with AMPECO's platform, feature advanced displays that deliver real-time pricing information, billing data, and payment processing. This ensures drivers are charged transparently for the energy they use, while enabling CPOs to fully meet key NTEP/CTEP requirements, including:
- Transparent display of all pricing tiers before charging begins
- Continuous display of pricing and running costs throughout charging sessions
- Accurate measurement and recording of electrical output in kWh
- Maintenance of pricing calculations even during internet connectivity loss
- Clear labeling of maximum power output
- Field-testable accuracy verification
- Comprehensive receipts that itemize all charging costs

Jose Barbosa, VP of Sales North America at i-charging, added: "Our blueberry DC charging stations featuring multiple charging ports combined with AMPECO's compliant software create a future-proof solution for the U.S. market. With extensive experience across multiple continents, we're bringing proven technology to meet the rigorous standards of the American market."

This strategic collaboration leverages i-charging's established presence across five continents and AMPECO's expertise in delivering hardware-agnostic charging management software solutions in over 65 countries worldwide. i-charging brings significant global experience from its market positions in Europe, South America, Asia-Pacific, and the Middle East. Their DC hardware line ranges from 50kW to megawatt charging systems. The flagship blueberry DC stations feature up to four charging ports in a single unit, with developments underway to expand to eight ports and support for Megawatt Charging System (MCS).

AMPECO's software platform, supporting over 170 charging network operators globally, complements i-charging's hardware with comprehensive software platform capabilities. Fully compliant with NTEP/CTEP requirements, AMPECO’s CPMS ensures network operators’ conformity in meeting the extensive electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) requirements.
