Combining up to two Samsung OH55A displays, up to two IoTecha 80-amp EV charging ports (each having maximum power at 19.2kW) and Palmer Digital Group integration solutions (including built-in cable retractors, card readers, cameras and speakers), the all-in-one charging kiosks support digital content and advertising, including DOOH, and they feature weatherproofing.

The system also leverages IoT.ON Cloud and Edge services for EV charging fleet monitoring and smart management.

"The electric vehicle industry is experiencing tremendous growth, and as adoption continues to increase, we're thrilled to play a key role in making chargers a destination for drivers," David Phelps, Display Division's head of product management at Samsung Electronics America. "By partnering with Palmer Digital Group and IoTecha, we're able to collaboratively create a unique environment that engages drivers on a deeper level while charging their vehicles. The marriage of captivating content with high-quality displays is revolutionizing the electric vehicle experience, and we're just getting started."

"This EV charging kiosk is a great example of a multi-stakeholder collaboration where industry leaders contributed their state-of-the-art technology to offer an EV charging solution with many types of customers, from businesses to end users, in mind," Oleg Logvinov, CEO at IoTecha, said in the release. "The kiosk supports the latest technical requirements laid out by the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure program by supporting ISO 15118, OCPP and Plug and Charge. By meeting these standards, businesses deploying the new charging kiosk may qualify for NEVI funding to further offset deployment costs and users are provided an improved charging experience."
