Participation in 'Vietnam International Innovation Expo 2023'
NACS Connector Product Expected to Complete Development Within the Year

SK Signet, the No.1 player in the U.S. electric vehicle ultra-fast charging market, has introduced an ultra-fast charger product applying Tesla's charging method in Vietnam, targeting the Southeast Asian market.

SK Signet announced on the 31st that it participated in the 'Vietnam International Innovation Expo 2023 (VIIE 2023),' the inaugural event at the Hanoi National Innovation Center (NIC) in Vietnam. SK Group set up an exhibition hall to strengthen cooperation in eco-friendly businesses such as renewable energy and resource circulation with Vietnam.

Although SK Signet primarily operates its business in Korea and the U.S., it participated in this exhibition to prepare for potential demand in the Southeast Asian market.

SK Signet exhibited its ultra-fast charger product at the SK Group exhibition hall's 'Clean Mobility' zone within the Vietnam National Innovation Center. The 400kW ultra-fast charger V2, equipped with a connector using Tesla's North American Charging Standard (NACS), was displayed alongside the VinFast VF5 vehicle.

The Vietnam International Innovation Expo 2023, the largest exhibition in Vietnam since last year, is held for five days until the 1st of next month at the Hanoi National Innovation Center under the theme "To Connect Ecosystem for Innovation."

Shin Jeong-ho, CEO of SK Signet, said, "In addition to major markets such as Korea and the U.S., we will continuously contribute to achieving global net zero (carbon neutrality) through innovation in charging experiences based on SK Signet's technological capabilities."
