German government proposes legislation to make fast chargers mandatory at gas stations – ADS-TEC Energy’s battery-buffered ultra-fast charging systems are the ideal solution

- German government is looking to step up rapid expansion of
fast-charging stations.
- At the IAA Mobility 2023, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz spoke
of a planned legal requirement for gas station operators that would
affect around 11,000 gas stations.
- Easy and flexible-to-install solutions such as ChargeBox and
ChargePost from ADS-TEC Energy make this a realistic and quickly
achievable goal – for charging in minutes at up to 320 kW on
power-limited grids.
In a statement by Chancellor Olaf Scholz, the German government
unveiled its plan to make fast chargers at gas stations mandatory
by law. This would apply to operators of “almost all gas stations,”
Scholz announced at the opening of IAA Mobility 2023, adding that
“range anxiety will finally be a thing of the past.” According to
current plans by the government, the mandate will apply to around
80% of all gas stations in Germany, or around 11,000 facilities.
The government’s ambitious goal is for 1 million public charging
points to be installed throughout Germany by the end of 2030.
According to a survey by the German Association of Energy and Water
Industries (BDEW), as of July 1 of this year, the current number
stands at only 10% of this target.

ADS-TEC Energy (NASDAQ: ADSE), a global leader in
battery-buffered, ultra-fast charging technology, sees its trusted
ChargeBox and ChargePost products as a route to providing a
flexible, high-performance charging infrastructure at most gas
stations – especially in locations where the grid cannot be
upgraded to accommodate high-power charging capacities. This is due
to the amount of space required by grid expansion – especially for
transformer stations – as well as the noise generated when charging
at a medium-voltage connection, which are not permitted in downtown
areas.
ADS-TEC Energy’s battery-buffered charging solutions operate on
“typical” grid connections, with a minimal footprint and almost no
noise. They are quick and easy to install, enabling “ultra-fast”
charging in minutes and at up to 320 kW. This makes high-power
charging possible almost anywhere, even at locations with low
connection power, such as downtown or rural areas. ChargeBox and
ChargePost thus facilitate the acceptance of electromobility by
making electric car charging as fast as conventional refueling and
bringing fast charging to the most convenient locations for
drivers.
Thomas Speidel, CEO of ADS-TEC Energy said, “If fast charging
only takes minutes instead of hours, and is also available at gas
stations on daily driving routes through downtown areas, this will
not only be significantly more convenient for drivers but it will
also boost acceptance among the general population. This is exactly
what is needed to propel e-mobility into the mainstream.”
Especially well-suited to gas stations
Since the battery unit and power electronics are housed in a
cube with a footprint of just 1.6 m² (17 square feet), ChargeBox
can be flexibly integrated into existing gas station setups. Its
two charging dispensers can be positioned within a radius of 100
meters (328 feet) from each other. The whole ChargeBox system has a
sleek design and the charging dispensers do not emit any noise,
even when charging at maximum power. The system charges
continuously from the available distribution grid and boosts the
charging power up to 320 kW at one charging point – or 2x 160 kW
for two parallel charging sessions. At gas stations, this means
that two electric vehicles – whether car, van or transporter – can
be charged at the same time in minutes for a range of around 100
kilometers (62 miles).
The ADS-TEC Energy ChargePost provides maximum charging
performance at up to 300 kW DC or 2x 150 kW and maximum storage
capacity with the smallest possible footprint of less than 2 m² (17
square feet). ChargePost has two built-in battery-buffered charging
points including power electronics and battery storage. It also
features two 75-inch UHD monitors that can be used as advertising
space, offering additional revenue streams for operators. In
addition, the bidirectional use of the ChargePost or the use of
self-generated energy from PV systems enable new business models
involving the sector coupling of mobility and electricity.
Our proven solutions in practice
Customers and partners of ADS-TEC Energy have already shared
extensive positive feedback on fast-charging points at gas
stations.
An example is JOLT Energy, a charge point operator specializing
in establishing a fast-charging network at highly frequented urban
locations. “We have already installed numerous ChargeBox charging
stations at gas stations in several major German cities. The
interest from gas station operators and owners is substantial as we
can provide them with a reliable and space-saving solution for the
planned fast-charging requirement. We build, finance, and operate
fast-charging stations, allowing gas stations to benefit from
additional revenue and new customers without having to invest in
charging infrastructure themselves. Now is the right time to
establish location partnerships to comply with the upcoming
regulatory requirements,” said Maurice Neligan, CEO of the
fast-charging network operator JOLT Energy.
