ADS-TEC Energy strategy pays off: E-mobility ramps-up with ultra-fast charging solutions and strong strategic partners amperio, GP JOULE CONNECT and JOLT Energy

ADS-TEC Energy (NASDAQ: ADSE), a leading provider of battery-based, ultra-fast charging systems in Europe and the U.S., today announced that strategic partners are successfully implementing its ultra-fast charging systems in a wide range of use cases, demonstrating the significant potential of battery-buffered, ultra-fast charging for rapidly scaling electric vehicle (EV) charging. ADS-TEC Energy’s solutions do not require time-consuming, cost-intensive network expansion, making it possible for charge-point operators (CPOs) to bring the benefits of ultra-fast charging to inner cities and rural areas where grid expansion opportunities are limited but fast EV charging solutions are needed.

Experience with the simple planning, rapid installation and reliable operation of ADS-TEC Energy’s ultra-fast charging systems and their use in diverse business models by strategic partners such as amperio, GP JOULE CONNECT and JOLT Energy over the past year and a half paints an extremely positive picture. ChargeBox and, since the end of last year, ChargePost, have shown sustained high performance with up to 320 kW – matched to the charging performance of vehicles with 400- and 800-volt charging technology. Applications range from municipal applications at public parking lots or in front of retail stores, gas stations, car dealerships and car rental facilities. In the future, the partners anticipate supporting ultra-fast charging for commercial vehicles, as well.

The exceptional performance is reflected in concrete evaluations of individual charging stations from customers. The partners reported that both the charging performance per charge and the energy throughput of well over 140 charging sessions per week (with approximately 6 MWh energy throughput), exceeded their expectations for ChargeBox, with no noticeable drop in charging power for each individual charging operation. These results come from a utilization study in the Stuttgart, Germany, region, where a disproportionately large number of Porsche Taycans have been charging at a ChargeBox installed at a public gas station with a peak charging power of 270 kW. The exemplary proof of concept, which can also be applied to other charging stations, is driving additional customer inquiries.

ADS-TEC Energy’s partners are overwhelmingly positive about the progress made.

Thomas Speidel, CEO, ADS-TEC Energy, said, “The fact that our products can show their full strength in real-life applications is the best feedback for us. We are pleased to receive extremely positive feedback from our successful CPO partners, such as amperio, GP JOULE CONNECT and JOLT Energy, regarding their further planning and business development.”

Maurice Neligan, CEO, JOLT Energy, is particularly optimistic about the future, and stated: “We are continuing to expand our market leadership for ultra-fast charging in cities, and have now already installed seven charging stations in Munich. We are opening up new locations with the launch of the new MerlinOne Charger with digital advertising displays, and for the first time we have equipped an office complex in Munich with a JOLT ‘Charge Park.‘ The interest from gas stations, supermarkets and real estate companies has been tremendous; we see extremely dynamic market development. Ultra-fast charging in cities will further accelerate the uptake of e-mobility and will become the key to success for the powertrain transition.”

Manuel Reich, managing director, GP JOULE CONNECT, said, “The solution is also attractive if the grid connection is not sufficient for ultra-fast charging. With ADS-TEC Energy, we can also offer this without complex grid expansion. The use of storage-based, ultra-fast charging stations represents a highly scalable business for very many of our business partners in various application areas. They enable additional revenue streams through self-generated bidirectional photo-voltaic energy feed-in, energy trading and advertising revenue.”

Oliver Kaul, CEO, amperio, said: “We already plan to include ADS-TEC Energy’s storage-based, ultra-fast-charging stations in many of our projects, including rental car providers, independent car dealerships and other car dealership locations. Following strong feedback from the market, we aim to at least double the number of installed systems in the coming year. While E-mobility is still in its infancy, the nationwide charging infrastructure will be achieved through full acceptance of the new technology. We are prepared and will create added value beyond just fast charging by linking it to local generation or even digital advertising. All of this is fast and cost-effective, delivers high performance, and is possible without network expansion.”

Typically thought of as being an easy to clean area of the home, hard floors have risen in popularity in recent decades. Globally, hard floors are the most common floor type,2 and research released today by Dyson has uncovered poor cleaning habits that mean hard floors are likely to be harbouring an array of hidden nasties. This comes as 32% of Brits – equating to 21.6 million people in the UK – will use the same dirty mop head for six months or more before replacing it. What’s more, one in 20 also admit to keeping the same mop for a year or longer, and one in 10 think it is acceptable to use the same mop 100 times, spreading dirt around their floors every time they use it. Cross contamination is a primary issue for most common and traditional mopping methods with germs and bacteria further being unknowingly spread around homes as Brits use dirty water to clean floors.3 45% only change the water to new water between rooms, whereas 41% wait even longer until it looks dirty. This could mean that floors are being washed with dirty water, adding more dirt rather than taking it away. Surprisingly, almost one in 10 (9%) even admit to not changing the dirty water at all when mopping. Over a quarter (28%) admit to mopping their floors once a fortnight or less while over half (53%) admit they don’t regularly clean behind appliances and leave dirt to build up for as long as six months at a time. image002.jpg On how to achieve a perfect barefoot clean feel after mopping, Geli Lee, Dyson Engineer and Home Cleaning Expert offers their top tips for eliminating dirt around the home: 1. Create a cleaning schedule to stay on top of dirt build-up. In the last year, there has been a 15% global reduction in the number of people who maintain regular cleaning schedules. 47% of the British public admitted to only being motivated to clean when they spot visible dirt or dust.4 Regular floor cleaning with a wet hard floor cleaner like the Dyson WashG1™ removes more stubborn dirt than vacuuming alone. It is important to have a debris free surface, clear any clutter from the floor or other surfaces. Choose the right machine: Different vacuums are designed for different floor types and home sizes. Some machines will be engineered with hard floors in mind and will struggle on thick pile carpets, for example. Choosing the right machine for your home will make a big difference to the ease and speed with which you’re able to clean your home. Clean your floors ‘little and often’. Washing your floors frequently in areas that receive more foot fall will help to stop dirt building up and getting trodden into your floor. Using a dedicated wet floor cleaner on hard flooring such as the Dyson WashG1 is helpful for this, as the versatile format means it vacuums and washes the floor simultaneously. Cleaning schedules have also become less regimented. In recent years only 41% of people claim to have a regular cleaning schedule, and 60% admit to cleaning reactively; being motivated to clean only when there is visible dirt or dust5. It’s perhaps not surprising, that a fifth of people are still concerned their floors are dirty after they’ve mopped them (22%) and one in four6 feel extremely worried about indoor dust at home. Geli Lee, Dyson Engineer and Home Cleaning Expert reveals why it is important to change the way we mop: “Cleaning your hard floors properly and regularly is important for maintaining a healthy environment around your home. Without a proper cleaning routine, dirt may unknowingly build up and spread around your home. It is evident from our research that current mopping habits mean British households aren’t cleaning their floors as effectively as they should. “From ignoring problem areas where dust and debris build up, cross contamination with dirty water to not replacing mop heads or inconsistent cleaning, current mopping behaviours may be making floors dirtier as opposed to cleaner. Moving away from traditional methods, wet floor cleaners like the Dyson WashG1 simplify the floor cleaning experience and provide a modern efficient and hygienic solution” To help take the guesswork out of mopping, the brand new WashG1 is Dyson’s first dedicated wet floor cleaner that tackles wet and dry debris in one go. Engineered for hygienic cleaning and maintenance, the WashG1 is revolutionising wet floor cleaning, removing the need for multi-products and multi-steps to achieve a barefoot clean feel around the home. To put the product to the test, Dyson have cleaned one of London’s most iconic landmarks The Victoria and Albert Museum. From cleaning the grand marble floors housing the most prestigious exhibits, to cleaning up leftover food in the Gamble Room Cafe, the WashG1 had a dirt busting tour of the museum leaving it spotless. Images can be found here. The WashG1 introduces Dyson’s engineering expertise to cleaning hard floors. With a 1 litre clean-water tank to cover flooring up to 290m2, the Dyson WashG1 uses a combination of hydration, absorption, and extraction technologies to remove wet and dry spills and stains simultaneously. The Dyson WashG1 is available to purchase now from Dyson.co.uk, retailing at £599.99.
