The goal
Charging EVs at low cost
Equipping 16 car dealerships with smart charging infrastructure presents a number of challenges. They were searching for an economical solution that would reconcile the needs of the various brands of cars with the conditions at the location (e.g. the low capacity of the grid connection).
Our solution
How to minimise follow-up costs
At many locations, the network environment would have quickly reached its limits at first glance due to the additional load caused by the charging stations without any load management. However, our analysis showed that intelligent charging and energy management with ChargePilot® could easily meet the requirements specified by car manufacturers until least until 2025.
"We advise our customers to plan areas for the electric car shop on the company premises for which the empty piping and sub-distribution are already prepared today. This significantly minimizes the follow-up costs for future extensions."

Project manager at The Mobility House
Success story
Limited Grid connection? No problem
The Rosier car dealership group had electrified 16 of their locations within a few months, allowing them to quickly and reliably charge not only vehicles belonging to customers and employees, but also test and delivery vehicles.
With our technology that optimally utilizes the limited grid connection, we were able to save up to €50,000 per location in expensive network expansion and up to €20,000 per year in operating costs per location. The vendor-neutral software and hardware ChargePilot® is already set for the breakthrough of electric mobility and can be extended almost infinitely.
"We’re very happy with the results of both the advice and the concept they designed. The suggestions regarding voltage peaks, energy management and charging cycles during the charging process were particularly helpful to our decision - making processes. We had simply never thought of some of the issues that were raised!"
Hendrik Rosier,
Divisional Head of Logistics & Purchasing Manager
