This new electric vehicle charger (EVC) addresses critical market gaps in reliability and durability while offering an unmatched customer experience.
Designed and manufactured in Austin, TX, for the U.S. market, Wayne PWR is National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) compliant and built to the highest standard of quality. The EVC is backed by DFS’s nationwide Wayne® approved partner service network, offering remote diagnostics, proactive monitoring and check-ups to help ensure maximum uptime and quick maintenance.
“One of the biggest challenges in the EV charging industry is reliability,” said Chad Bass, Director of Product Management for EV Charging at DFS. “We designed, developed, and will manufacture Wayne PWR right here in Austin, as we believe this direct control over production will help ensure that our EVC meets the highest standards of reliability.”
Engineered with the same standards that have defined DFS’s products for over 130 years, Wayne PWR features superior weather protection, vandal-proofing, UV and scratch resistance, and temperature reliability. These features help ensure that Wayne PWR remains operational in even the most extreme conditions.
Wayne PWR also offers a comprehensive solution that enhances the consumer experience. Wayne PWR:
- Is equipped with an intuitive digital touchscreen that displays power levels, remaining time-to-full-charge, energy consumption, and more.
- Features easy and secure payments through the POS-agnostic Wayne iX Pay Direct™ payment platform, with the integration of Plug & Charge protocol in Wayne iX Pay® 2 payment platform coming soon.
- Includes plans for customizable media options and seamless integration with loyalty programs, allowing convenience store retailers to offer personalized experiences that drive consumer engagement and revenue.
“Wayne PWR gives businesses access to all the tools they need to enhance operations and consumer satisfaction for EV drivers,” said Kendra Keller, Vice President and General Manager of North America at DFS. “From setting their own pricing to real-time monitoring, owners will have full control over their charging infrastructure, supported by the expertise, innovation and technology that DFS is known for delivering.”
Beyond the user interface, Wayne PWR’s cloud-based charge station management system allows owners to monitor the status of EVCs in real-time and provide valuable insights into driver behavior to generate new revenue streams.
