A charging station shouldn’t reach the end of its life simply because it shows signs of use.
Through Etrel’s refurbishment programme, selected INCH charging stations can be restored, upgraded and returned to operation, helping partners extend their operational lifetime, minimise waste and get more value from their existing infrastructure.
Charging infrastructure is built to operate for years.
Over time, however, technology evolves, components wear and operational requirements change. Refurbishment offers an alternative to complete replacement by restoring selected INCH charging stations and updating them where appropriate.
Software and firmware updates
Exterior restoration
Branding updates
Hardware inspection and replacement of selected components
Functional testing before returning the charger to operation
Refurbishing existing chargers provides significant benefits compared to full replacement, especially for fleets managing large-scale EV charging network.
Lower lifecycle costs
Refurbishment extends the value of existing infrastructure without the cost of complete replacement.
Extend operational lifetime
Give selected charging stations a second lifecycle and continue using existing infrastructure for years to come.
Reduced environmental impact
Keeping charging stations in service helps reduce waste and supports a more circular and sustainable approach to infrastructure.
Enhanced performance
Upgraded components and software ensure faster, more efficient charging with the latest smart features.
Our refurbishment programme is carried out by the engineers behind the original product.
That means every charging station benefits from the same technical knowledge, quality standards and product understanding that went into its original design.
