I buy
Batteries, inverters and megawatt chargers for AVIGUS's own hubs. First lane: Antwerp port ↔ Duisburg, 20 electric trucks.
Who you are talking to
Bart Van den Keybus, AVIGUS, Belgium. One person, three roles.
I run AVIGUS BV in Boom, next to the port of Antwerp, Belgium.
Two of my websites are live today: every heavy electric truck and charger of IAA 2026, and what an electric truck really costs per country.
The charging hubs are planned, not built. That is why I am here: to choose the batteries, inverters and chargers that go in first.
I sell
Your systems to charging-hub owners, truck fleets and solar and wind parks in Europe. One contact, one contract.
I install
Permits, grid connection, installation, commissioning, service and spare parts, in Europe.

The problem
Megawatt chargers need megawatts. The grid cannot deliver them in time.
One megawatt charging plug can draw up to 3.75 MW. Three trucks charging at once draw more than ten megawatts.
In one European country alone, nearly ten thousand companies queue for a bigger grid connection, and a new high-voltage line takes eight to twelve years to build.
A charging hub that waits for the grid is a hub that earns nothing.

The opportunity
Power in Europe is often free at noon and expensive at night. A battery turns that gap into cheap charging.
In 2025 the wholesale price went below zero for more than 520 hours in one European country, a record, driven by solar.
In 2026 the same market swung from almost −500 to +658 euro per megawatt-hour.
The EU installed 27 GWh of batteries in 2025 and needs about 750 GWh by 2030. A charging hub is the best place for them: cheap power in, megawatt charging out.

The solutionPLANNED
One grid connection, one battery, megawatt chargers. Trucks charge in 20 minutes while the battery buys cheap.
The battery takes wind, solar and imbalance power when it is cheap or negative, and feeds the megawatt chargers when the trucks arrive.
A one-megawatt grid connection then serves up to three megawatts of charging, and the hub can open years before the big connection comes.
First AVIGUS lane: Antwerp port ↔ Duisburg, 20 electric trucks driving day and night, drivers taking turns at the hub, with beds, showers and toilets.

What I am looking for at your booth
Show me the system that fits a charging hub.
Containers, inverters, chargers and the software that trades the power. Proven in Europe, or ready to be.
- LFP containers, 2–9 MWh
- Inverters (PCS), 1–3 MW
- Megawatt chargers, 1–3.75 MW
- EMS that trades on day-ahead and imbalance prices
- EU-ready: CE, grid code EN 50549, cybersecurity
- A European partner for installation and service: me
What I need from you:
- Datasheet, and the price per kWh of capacity, delivered to Antwerp
- Delivery time, and the cycle or throughput warranty
- EU certificates and European references
- Who signs: the factory or a distributor
The market
Belgium first. Then the eleven countries my cost calculator already covers.
Antwerp is the start: the first lane, the first hub, the first battery.
eTruckTCO.eu knows diesel prices, road tolls and charging prices in 11 countries and 13 toll zones. That is where the next hubs go.
eTrucksAndChargers.com lists every heavy electric truck and charger of IAA 2026. Your chargers can be listed there today.

Three steps from this booth to a first order.
- 1You send me your datasheet and your EU price per kWh of capacity.
- 2I send you the hub spec: grid capacity, storage in MWh, power in MW, site and timing.
- 3A first order for the Antwerp hub, or a distribution agreement for Europe.
