One particularly innovative location is the filling station in Bocholt, where a 45 kWp photovoltaic system has been integrated into the energy management system. Here, Avia has modernised the entire building technology of the filling station to ensure efficient use of the energy generated on site. The smart load management ensures that the available grid connection is used optimally, and that EV charging is managed flexibly.
Digital out-of-home advertising (DOOH) is a further area of focus at the locations. While a 75-inch display has already been installed on the ChargePost systems in Blomberg, specific marketing concepts for the DOOH advertising spaces are currently still being planned. This can further increase the profitability of the charging infrastructure and create additional added value for the operator.
The project shows how existing gas stations can get ready for e-mobility through smart technology – and without expensive grid upgrades. With flexible, scalable solutions such as ChargePost and intelligent load management, ultra-fast charging is possible even at challenging locations.
“The integration of fast charging infrastructure at existing refueling stations requires intelligent solutions - especially when grid connections are limited” said Thomas Speidel, CEO and founder of ADS-TEC Energy. “With our ChargePost and innovative load management, we enable ultra-fast charging without costly grid infrastructure upgrades. The joint project with Avia shows how modern charging infrastructure can be seamlessly integrated into existing locations and create new opportunities for the mobility of the future.”
