At the crossroads of speed and top-tier technology

You’ll find Sparki at the crossroads of speed and top-tier technology — and that technology is evolving at lightning speed. That’s why Sparki decided to future-proof every charging station, investing in more power capacity than even the fastest electric car can handle today.

Ultra-fast charging on the go

Sparki’s technology is the perfect solution to quickly recharge on the go. As little as five minutes gives you 100 km of extra range. In 15 to 20 minutes, you can charge up to 80%. Still in doubt? Do the test at one of our charging stations.

Pure powerhouse

Fast charging starts at 50 kW. Sparki charges up to six times more than that. Each of our charging stations delivers at least 300 kW. Our fastest charger hits an unparalleled 720 kW. Clearly, Sparki wins – hands-down.

Charge to 100 km? In lightning speed.

The Sparki difference

We’ll cut right to the chase. Today, there are four types of charging stations on the market. And the difference is massive. Here’s a quick comparison.

22kW

Public charging pole
  • Up to 80% in 2 hours

50kW

Fast charger
  • Up to 100 km in 30 minutes**
  • Up to 80% in 1 hour

300kW

Ultra-fast charger
  • Up to 100 km in 5 minutes
  • Up to 80% in 15-20 minutes

720kW

Ultra-fast charger
  • Future-proof solution
  • In 2023, Sparki will have the first 720 kW chargers in Europe.

*The exact speed depends on the vehicle charging capacity, battery temperature, and the vehicle charging curve.
**Based on an average consumption of 17 kW (source https://www.vlaanderen.be)

Top-tier technology: 300 kW

Our charging stations contain the most advanced technology available from innovators like Siemens. Powered by high voltage cabins, each charging station has a capacity of up to 300 kW. Ultra-powerful, ultra-fast.

  • Ultra-powerful charging station with separate energy source via individual high-voltage cabins.
  • Fastest average charging time: up to 80% in 10-20 minutes (Depending on the vehicle charging capacity.)
  • Coming soon, most payment methods accepted: app, Apple Pay, bank cards, Visa, Mastercard, tokens, …)
*Installation speed depends on the location analysis. (The best locations have priority.)

Faster than fast: 720 kW

You won’t find them in Belgium yet, or even in Europe. But we will have next-generation WILLBERT ultra-fast chargers. Each new charging station delivers up to 720 kW. You’ll see our first ultra-fast chargers hitting the road in late 2023.

Battery life

A persistent “urban legend” is that fast charging is bad for your EV battery. Nothing could be further from the truth. Alternating between slow and fast charging enhances battery life. It’s the car — not the charger — that decides how much and how fast you’ll charge.

Winter and summer

The exact charging speed depends on charging capacity, the charging curve, and battery temperature. Seasoned EV drivers know this all too well. There are no certainties… except one. At Sparki, you’ll always find the fastest charging stations — whatever the season.

Do the test

Don’t take our word for it. Test it yourself. We admit: Sparki is not available everywhere (yet). But that’s about to change, because at Sparki, everything moves ultra-fast. Want to know where you can charge with Sparki today?
