The smarter E Europe: New, pioneering use concepts

The combination of solar energy and electric vehicles enables new, pioneering use concepts for private households and companies alike. Even small photovoltaic (PV) systems with only three kilowatts peak provide enough power to drive an electric vehicle thousands of kilometers a year – without harming the environment.

When electromobility meets solar energy: Power2Drive will take place as a part of The smarter E Europe – the innovation hub for empowering new energy solutions.
Power2Drive Europe visitors will find out everything what is to know about concepts for the path to a successful transportation transition. The international exhibition for charging infrastructure and electromobility will take place as a part of The smarter E Europe – the innovation hub for empowering new energy solutions. Over 200 suppliers of charging infrastructure and electric vehicles as well as 50,000 visitors are expected at Messe München.

One asset of e-mobility is how perfectly it can be combined with renewable energy. Electric vehicles can be driven and charging stations can be fed with electricity from PV systems. Ideally, electric vehicles are charged with solar power directly from the owner’s roof. Electric vehicles are notably more efficient than conventional fuel-burning vehicles. A PV system with a capacity of three kilowatts peak in a single-family home in Germany can provide enough power annually to operate an electric car for around 14,000 kilometers emission free.

This will be of particular interest for all those PV system owners who will lose their eligibility for EEG subsidies in 2021 or later, once their installations are more than 20 years old. For them, completely new business models such as the operation of solar filling stations are also in the works, with many suppliers having already developed the necessary software. Innovative areas of business are also opening up in many other sectors. Some solar technology suppliers are expanding their business activities and cooperating with manufacturers to offer electric vehicles for sale or lease.
