Accuenergy has unveiled its AcuDC 300 EV Charging Meter, a new revenue-grade DC energy meter poised to enhance precision and regulatory compliance within the rapidly expanding electric vehicle (EV) fast-charging infrastructure. This launch addresses the critical need for accurate and reliable energy measurement in high-power DC charging environments, a cornerstone for transparent billing and efficient grid management.

The AcuDC 300 boasts an impressive 0.1 percent measurement accuracy across an input voltage range of 60 to 1000 VDC. Crucially, it is MID-certified, adhering to IEC 62053-41:2021 Class 0.5 and EN 50470-4 Class C standards, making it suitable for legal billing applications globally. This certification is vital for operators seeking to monetize charging services reliably and transparently.

Engineered for bidirectional EV charging, the device supports advanced applications like vehicle-to-grid (V2G), enabling energy flow in both directions. To bolster billing integrity, the AcuDC 300 incorporates cable-loss compensation, robust anti-tamper protection with electronic and physical seals, and built-in non-volatile memory for data logging during power outages. Its ability to provide digitally signed OCMF (Open Charge Metering Format) output ensures seamless data exchange and interoperability with diverse EV infrastructure backend systems, a key factor for scalable deployments.

Ryan Manbahal, Product Manager at Accuenergy, emphasized the product's market relevance, stating, "The EV charging landscape is evolving quickly, and operators need tools that meet both technical performance and regulatory requirements. The AcuDC 300 was designed to address that exact need, providing precise DC measurement, secure data integrity and compatibility with modern EV fast charging systems." This highlights the company's strategic response to industry demands.

Communication capabilities include Modbus RTU over RS485 and Modbus TCP/IP over Ethernet, ensuring broad compatibility with SCADA, EMS, and energy billing platforms. Its DIN rail-mountable design facilitates easy integration into various EV charging applications, from standard to ultra-fast chargers. As EV technology advances towards higher voltage systems, the AcuDC 300's 1000 VDC capability positions it as a future-proof solution, essential for accurate operational management and regulatory compliance in the evolving DC fast-charging sector. The product directly targets the growing demand for verified data management in high-power charging stations.
