Cost-effective, green solutions for the mobility industry

It’s the first time that the Business Unit Solar Energy of Fronius International GmbH attended IAA Transportation.

“Fronius Solar Energy has been a pioneer in energy solutions for over 30 years,” explains Wolfgang Hink, Head of Energy Supply Solutions & Services, Fronius International GmbH. “Carbon neutrality and cost effectiveness should not be seen as mutually exclusive. Our aim is to help you implement the pressing energy transition in an economical, intelligent, and flexible manner.”

Fronius EMIL. Intelligent charging management for electric vehicles
The latest Fronius e-mobility innovation is Fronius EMIL – an intelligent charging management solution for electric car fleets, which has been developed for commercial customers. Power is intelligently supplied to the vehicles with user-based charging and is individually coordinated with the company-wide electricity consumption.

Fronius EMIL ensures that lines and equipment are not overloaded, thereby guaranteeing operational reliability. This makes the infrastructure more cost-effective and saves money.The intelligent charging management can be implemented anywhere and is extremely flexible. For example, any number of utility meters and charging points can be controlled without any additional hardware.

Fronius Wattpilot. Designed to move.
More and more companies are upgrading their vehicle fleets to electric cars, for obvious reasons. E-mobility is more sustainable than fossil fuels and also brings financial benefits. Driving is more economical in an electric car and the intelligent Fronius Wattpilot charging station optimizes these costs even more thanks to flexible charging.

E-mobility in combination with photovoltaics (PV) is the best example of a practical yet cost-effective way to implement the energy transition.

The Fronius Wattpilot comes in two versions – the static Wattpilot Home for the fleet of electric vehicles at the company’s premises and the mobile Wattpilot Go for when users are on the move.

Fronius IPP. Solar energy without the investment
Fronius offers complete e-mobility, load management, and energy supply solutions. “Combining photovoltaics and e-mobility is a particularly rewarding setup. That’s why we also provide customers with complete concepts, from the requirements analysis through installation, maintenance, and servicing,” details Wolfgang Hink.

Electric cars can be charged in a particularly cost-effective and flexible manner with power from a company’s own photovoltaic system. What’s more, charging the electric vehicle fleet in this way allows a large amount of the company’s self-generated solar power to be used at source, which in turn means the PV system delivers a full return on investment even more quickly.

In addition to the economic advantages, ecological arguments are playing an ever-increasing role. Charging electric vehicles with green, local power from an in-house PV system also reduces CO2 emissions.

“The mobility industry needs cost-effective solutions to contribute to the energy transition. In Fronius Solar Energy you will find an experienced partner to help you implement these solutions,” concludes Wolfgang Hink.
