The New WEG Technology to Charge Electric Vehicles Aims to Reach Even More Gas Stations and Residential Garages

WEG, a Brazilian company specialized in electrical solutions and automation, recently announced a partnership with General Motors (GM) for the provision of technologies for electric vehicle battery charging. With their combined efforts, the companies aim to expand the network available in garages and residential parking lots, offering state-of-the-art charging stations up to three times faster than the standard available on the market, according to NSC Total.

According to WEG, the electric vehicle charging stations will be provided by 78 Chevrolet vehicles, a specialist in electric vehicles. The technology ensures an extra 40 kilometers of range with 15 minutes of charging, and allows the driver to operate and monitor the battery via a mobile app. Additionally, the equipment can be connected to a solar energy generation installation and be installed in clusters to serve multiple users in a condominium or large parking lots.

Protection Against Rain and Solar Rays

The WEG electric vehicle charging stations also feature protection against rain and solar rays when placed in an uncovered area, ensuring greater safety for users and increased durability of the equipment. “We are taking another important step in our strategy to make WEG the leading provider of infrastructure for electric vehicle charging and a reference in efficient, smart, and intelligent solutions for the electric mobility segment,” emphasizes Carlos Bastos Grillo, WEG Digital & Systems Superintendent Director.

WEG’s Partnership with GM to Support Electric Mobility in Brazil

The partnership with GM reinforces WEG’s commitment to electric mobility in Brazil and its vision to become a leader in the electric vehicle charging infrastructure segment. GM, in turn, has been heavily investing in the development of electric vehicles and the expansion of charging infrastructure worldwide. Together, the companies hope to accelerate the adoption of electric cars in the country and contribute to the transition to a more sustainable future.

The expansion of the charging network is essential for the popularization of electric vehicles, as limited range is one of the main concerns for consumers. Furthermore, fast and efficient charging is crucial for the convenience and feasibility of the technology. With a partnership between WEG and GM, electric vehicle drivers in Brazil can expect a more convenient and efficient charging experience, and the country can take an important step towards a cleaner and more sustainable future.

Seven world powers including the US, China, and Russia are spending €22 billion on a reactor in the south of France that aims to confine plasma at 150 million degrees Celsius, ten times the temperature of the Sun’s core, using a magnetic field capable of lifting an entire aircraft carrier.

Elon Musk’s internet comes to mobile: Starlink technology connects smartphones without an antenna via satellite, works even without carrier signal, already costs just US$10 extra in the US, and could arrive in Brazil as an included benefit.

A Chinese factory in Guangdong is assembling a humanoid robot every 30 minutes while Tesla, Figure, and Boston Dynamics still struggle to deliver 10 thousand per year.

While Brazil has been discussing bullet trains for 16 years, China delivers 5 new high-speed lines in 2026, surpasses 50,000 km of HSR, and moves 1 billion passengers in a single year.

With a wingspan of 152 meters, 76 tires, and a capacity to carry 1,270 tons, the Boeing Pelican was the giant “flying ship” that promised to cross oceans close to the water on an invisible air cushion beneath its wings.

While countries spend billions to draw water from the sea, a Nobel-winning scientist creates a container-sized machine that extracts up to 1,000 liters per day from dry air and uses ultrasound to release water in minutes, even in the middle of the desert.

Belgium will sink 23 giant concrete caissons, each weighing 22,000 tons, in the North Sea to build the world’s first artificial energy island 45 km off the coast, forming offshore electrical walls.

Few know, but India has a 36 km wall that surrounds a fort in the mountains and is considered the second largest in the world, behind the Great Wall of China.

Hyundai Creta 2029 appears in new spy shots with a completely revamped design, a more modern digital interior, a larger multimedia center, a more comfortable passenger seat, and electrification finally on the radar.

Former CIA analyst warns that China has already surpassed the US in missiles, electronic warfare, cyber, and military production, transforming the Pacific into a zone without safe spaces while Washington clings to its submarine advantage.

Home-built airplane by a Minas Gerais engineer uses car parts, such as a power window motor for the flaps and a tachometer on the dashboard. The project took six years, and the aircraft has autonomy to fly up to seven hours non-stop.
