EV High Voltage On-Board Charger

Last update: 02 Sep. 2024

What is an on-board charger?

The electric vehicle onboard charger converts alternative current available on the grid into direct current that can charge the vehicle’s battery. Almost all the energy charged in the vehicle is flowing through the onboard charger’s power electronics.

In mass production since 2014, Valeo is continuously improving the performances and the functionalities of its onboard chargers. Valeo is currently proposing its 4^th generation based on a standard bi-directional scalable platform up to 22 kW and able to ensure a worldwide compatibility to address all cars and countries requirements (400-800V batteries, 1 or 3-phase network).
