Electric vehicle charger manufacturer SK Signet announced on May 21 that it has successfully completed the "2024 Public Fast Charger Manufacturing and Installation Project for Electric Vehicles," organized by the Korea Environment Corporation.


This project involved establishing a public fast charging infrastructure along major travel routes nationwide to support long-distance and emergency charging for electric vehicles. In the bidding held by the Korea Environment Corporation in June 2024, SK Signet was selected as the project operator after achieving the highest total scores in both quantitative and qualitative evaluations for both Zone 1 and Zone 2. The total project value is KRW 10 billion.


SK Signet supplied and installed a total of 240 fast chargers at 214 charging stations nationwide, including 105 units of 200kW chargers in Zone 1 and 135 units of 100kW chargers in Zone 2, covering Gyeonggi-do, Gangwon-do, Chungcheong-do, Gyeongsang-do, and Jeolla-do.


SK Signet stated, "Through a rigorous four-stage verification process?including certification sample testing, mass production vehicle and simulator testing, inspector-supervised real vehicle testing, and on-site commissioning?every product passed inspection without a single defect."


SK Signet established a real-time Construction Management System (CMS) led by dedicated construction personnel and operated installation teams for each process. The company explained that this approach reduced reliance on partner companies and ensured consistent construction quality across all 214 sites.



An SK Signet representative said, "We were awarded the entire project for both Zone 1 and Zone 2 and successfully delivered and installed all units with excellent quality within the contract period. All chargers are currently operating stably."
