Rolec EVO 22kW Smart EV Charger – Type 2 Socket, Grey

Rolec EVO 22kW – The Heavy-Duty EV Charger for Commercial, Fleet & Public Use

The Rolec EVO 22kW Smart EV Charger is built to handle the demands of busy commercial sites, fleet depots, and public charging environments. Delivering rapid three-phase charging via a universal Type 2 socket, it combines OCPP 1.6 integration, multi-network connectivity, and exceptional build quality — making it the ideal choice for operators who need reliability, scalability, and compliance with the latest UK charging regulations.

Whether you’re looking to roll out commercial EV charging across multiple locations or install a single, high-performance unit for workplace use, the Rolec EVO 22kW delivers the speed and control your site needs to keep drivers moving.

High-Speed 22kW Three-Phase Charging for Faster Turnarounds

Designed for sites with a three-phase electrical supply, the Rolec EVO 22kW offers rapid charging performance to maximise vehicle uptime. Its 22kW output can deliver a significant top-up in under an hour for most EVs, making it perfect for workplaces, fleet depots, retail car parks, and other high-traffic locations where drivers need to get back on the road quickly.

Unlike slower home chargers, this commercial-grade model is engineered for continuous operation, handling multiple charging sessions daily without overheating or performance drop-off. The universal Type 2 socket ensures compatibility with virtually all EVs on the market, making it a future-proof investment for your site.

Smart Network Integration with OCPP 1.6

The Rolec EVO 22kW is fully compliant with the Open Charge Point Protocol (OCPP) 1.6, allowing seamless integration with any compatible charge point management system (CPMS). This open-protocol design means you can choose the back-office software that best fits your operation — avoiding restrictive, locked-in solutions.

Through your chosen CPMS, you can monitor usage, track energy consumption, manage tariffs, handle user authentication, and even run remote diagnostics to minimise downtime. For public and fleet charging, this ensures smooth operations, transparent reporting, and easy scaling as your EV infrastructure grows.

4G, Wi-Fi & Ethernet Connectivity

For maximum flexibility in commercial environments, the Rolec EVO 22kW includes multiple built-in connectivity options. Whether your site has wired network points, strong wireless coverage, or needs a mobile data solution, this charger adapts to your setup.

• 📶 4G (SIM Slot): Ideal for remote locations or sites without fixed internet lines.
• 📡 Wi-Fi: Quick and cable-free connectivity for offices, car parks and retail sites.
• 🔌 Ethernet: Hard-wired stability for high-reliability, high-usage installations.

Installer-friendly Bluetooth setup also comes as standard, making initial configuration fast and hassle-free. Once online, the EVO stays connected for remote monitoring, firmware updates, and seamless back-office integration.

Engineered for Durability & Security

Designed for demanding commercial use, the Rolec EVO 22kW is built to handle constant traffic, variable weather, and public access environments without compromise.

• 🛡️ IK10 Impact Resistance: Protects against knocks, bumps and vandalism in busy locations.
• 🌧️ IP54 Weatherproofing: Operates reliably in rain, wind and dust-heavy outdoor settings.
• 🔥 Fire & Corrosion Resistant Housing: Extends lifespan, even in coastal or industrial areas.
• 🔒 Tamper Detection & Alerts: Security logs notify operators of any unauthorised access attempts.

From secure hardware to rugged casing, every aspect of the EVO is engineered to reduce downtime and safeguard your investment.

Compatible with Smart Tariffs & Solar Systems

The Rolec EVO 22kW isn’t just about power – it’s also about efficiency and sustainability. With built-in Eco and Eco+ modes, you can align charging with renewable generation or cheaper energy periods.

• 🌞 Eco Mode: Blends grid power with surplus solar for faster charging without wasting self-generated energy.
• 🌱 Eco+ Mode: Charges only when excess solar is available, maximising green energy use and lowering costs.
• 💡 Smart Tariff Scheduling: Integrates with off-peak energy plans to reduce operational expenses.

These features are rare for commercial chargers, giving businesses an edge in controlling costs and meeting sustainability goals.
