Baden-Württemberg Police Pilots ADS-TEC Energy’s 300 kW Fast-Charging System for EVs
Event summary
- Baden-Württemberg police has deployed ADS-TEC Energy’s ChargePost for a pilot project at the Pforzheim motorway police station, enabling fast charging of EVs up to 300 kW.
- The system features an integrated battery capacity of 201 kWh and can charge two EVs simultaneously at 150 kW each.
- Around 12% (630 vehicles) of the Baden-Württemberg police’s 5,400-vehicle fleet are already electric.
- ADS-TEC Energy’s solution eliminates the need for costly grid upgrades, providing ultra-fast charging even at locations with limited grid capacity.
The big picture
This deployment underscores the growing need for robust EV charging infrastructure in critical sectors like law enforcement, where vehicle availability and charging speeds are paramount. ADS-TEC Energy’s battery-buffered fast-charging technology addresses grid limitations, positioning the company as a key player in the electrification of public fleets. The project also highlights the strategic importance of local manufacturing and high cybersecurity standards in critical infrastructure.
