We speak with Johannes Buberger about bidirectional charging and multi-level batteries

This session sheds light on how the electrification of fleet vehicles transforms fleet management. Led by NOW GmbH, experts will discuss key aspects and necessary steps for electrification, the role of electrified fleets in the rapid development of the e-mobility market and practical solutions for managing electric fleets. Topics include the efficient use of charge management systems, smart charging based on dynamic tariffs and their success stories as well as the future potential of sustainable charge management. The discussion will cover legal aspects, including direct payment systems, while considering German calibration law and AFIR requirements. Fleet managers, decision makers in companies looking to switch to electric vehicles and those interested in the latest developments and legal framework in the area of electric fleet management will find this session particularly exciting.

This forward-looking session, presented by the German eMobility Association, explores smart and sustainable solutions in the field of electric mobility. Topics include smart solar charging, transforming mobility with innovative technology, and the role of open source as a key element in rebuilding EV charging infrastructure. Experts will also discuss calibration-compliant charging solutions from meter manufacturers that are aligned with the latest regulatory requirements (AFIR) and present exciting facts on the transformation of enterprise mobility. Participants will gain insights into the technological advances and regulatory challenges that are shaping the future of mobility. The target audience includes decision-makers and experts in the automotive and energy sectors, charging infrastructure developers, policy makers and anyone interested in developing sustainable mobility solutions.

Cars with solar roofs already exist. Now, the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems (ISE) is attaching a solar-active surface to a car hood. Now the researchers hope it will be ready for mass production.
