The electric vehicle industry has reached a critical inflection point where "range anxiety" is being replaced by "charging speed anxiety." As the new generation of EVs adopts 800V high-voltage platforms (such as Porsche Taycan, Hyundai IONIQ 5, and BYD Seal), the demand for 350kW High Power Charging (HPC) has surged. A 350kW station can deliver approximately 200 miles of range in less than 15 minutes, rivaling the traditional refueling experience.
Across Europe and North America, regulatory frameworks like the AFIR (Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Regulation) and the NEVI (National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure) program are mandating the deployment of fast chargers every 60km along major highways. This shift is driving a multi-billion dollar market for manufacturers capable of producing reliable, liquid-cooled, and high-efficiency 350kW units.
Charging for 80% Battery

China controls over 70% of the global EV battery and component supply chain. Manufacturers like MIDA Group benefit from local access to power modules, specialized cables, and cooling systems, reducing lead times by 40% compared to Western counterparts.
Chinese factories iterate designs at twice the speed of traditional manufacturers. From air-cooled systems to cutting-edge liquid-cooling units, the rapid prototyping cycle allows for the early adoption of MCS (Megawatt Charging System) standards.
Economies of scale allow Chinese factories to offer 350kW stations that meet UL and CE standards at a price point that accelerates the ROI for CPOs (Charge Point Operators) by 2-3 years.
Shanghai Mida Cable Group Ltd. operates through its wholly owned subsidiaries: Shanghai Mida EV Power Co., Ltd., Shenzhen Mida EV Power Co., Ltd., and Shanghai Mida New Energy Co., Ltd.
Mida Cable manufactures a comprehensive range of EV charging cables, including 16A–80A J1772 cables, 16A–63A IEC 62196-2 Type 2 cables, and DC fast charging cables: CCS1 (80A–500A), CCS2 (125A–1000A), CHAdeMO (125A–300A), GBT (200A–1000A), and NACS connectors (250A–600A).
MIDA EV Power produces a full lineup of EV charging stations, from 7kW mobile chargers to 1440kW split-type DC fast chargers, specializing in the high-power infrastructure required for the modern electric transition.

350kW stations are essential for long-distance travel, allowing drivers to recharge during a short coffee break. Reliability and uptime are critical here.
Electric trucks and buses with large battery capacities (300kWh+) require high power to minimize downtime between shifts.
For city dwellers without home charging, ultra-fast public charging replaces the weekly visit to the gas station.
Quick top-ups for delivery vans during loading/unloading operations to maintain 24/7 delivery schedules.
The industry is moving toward Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technology, where 350kW bidirectional chargers can act as virtual power plants, stabilizing the grid during peak hours. Furthermore, for heavy-duty marine and aviation applications, the groundwork for Megawatt Charging Systems (MCS) is already being laid, utilizing the same liquid-cooling principles found in today's best 350kW units.
