After all, one thing is certain: Stand-alone solutions are not the answer for electric mobility. When it comes to this very exciting but also extremely complex matter, you need to think far beyond the car.

In contrast to conventionally powered cars, many more variables enter the equation. Topics that are just as important for us as the car include charging solutions at home for user choosers \u2013 naturally with a separate billing option \u2013, the charging infrastructure at the company location, possibly even in-house energy production, uncomplicated authentication possibilities at the charging stations and \u2013 absolutely essential \u2013 smart energy management. All of these details need to be coordinated before the equation can be solved. And only then does electric mobility become a viable business case for the company. At the end of the day, the Total Costs of Ownership (TCO) are also critical in this respect.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<div class=\"iv-modul__question\">\n<div class=\"question-answer-modul abstractContentComponent parbase section\">\n<div class=\"iv-modul__question\">\n<div class=\"question-answer-modul abstractContentComponent parbase section\">\n<div class=\"iv-modul__question\">\n<div class=\"iv-modul__question\">\n<div class=\"iv-modul__question\">\n<div class=\"iv-modul__question\">\n<div class=\"iv-modul__question\">\n<div class=\"iv-modul__question\">\n<div class=\"iv-modul__question\">\n<div class=\"iv-modul__question\">\n<p><strong>Does that mean that a battery electric fleet vehicle is more attractive than a conventional model in terms of TCO?<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"iv-modul__answer\">\n<p>By taking a comprehensive and structured approach, this can already become a reality. The more closely the previously mentioned aspects can be coordinated and the smarter energy management is organised, in particular, the lower the \u201cfuel costs\u201d, which have a significant impact on the TCO. Our goal is quite clear: to offers customers the prospect of even cost-neutral charging. This goal will get tantalisingly closer as soon as the first vehicles with bi-directional charging technology arrive on the market and all regulatory matters have been resolved. Besides this, we will be able to buffer the available green electricity to a large extent using vehicles that can supply electricity back into the grid.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]\n\n<div class=\"article_paragraphimage article_paragraphimage_left \" style=\"width: 40%;\">\n\t<div class=\"ap_img_wrapper mylightbox_hover\">\n\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.groupfleet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/1163x654_Seite_3-640x360.jpg\" class=\"attachment-vw_small size-vw_small open_mylightbox\" alt=\"\" data-full=\"https:\/\/www.groupfleet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/1163x654_Seite_3.jpg\" data-desc=\"\" \/>\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"article_paragraphimage_text\">\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\n<\/div>[vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<div class=\"iv-modul__question\">\n<div class=\"iv-modul__question\">\n<div class=\"question-answer-modul abstractContentComponent parbase section\">\n<div class=\"iv-modul__question\">\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><strong>Around 6,500 gigawatt hours of green electricity produced in Germany goes unused every year.<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Enough energy to power 2.7 million vehicles for an entire year.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_empty_space][vc_empty_space][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<div class=\"iv-modul__question\">\n<div class=\"question-answer-modul abstractContentComponent parbase section\">\n<div class=\"iv-modul__question\">\n<div class=\"question-answer-modul abstractContentComponent parbase section\">\n<div class=\"iv-modul__question\">\n<div class=\"iv-modul__question\">\n<div class=\"iv-modul__question\">\n<div class=\"iv-modul__question\">\n<div class=\"iv-modul__question\">\n<p><strong>This means that the vehicles act to a certain extent like \u201crolling powerbanks\u201d?<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"iv-modul__answer\">\n<p>Quite correct. I always say: electric mobility and green electricity are two sides of the same coin. The more green electricity that is fed into the grid from wind power or photovoltaic systems, for example, the greater the fluctuation in supply, and the more storage capacity that is therefore needed \u2013 which we can generate with electric vehicles. Let me quote you a few figures: Around 6,500 gigawatt hours \u2013 note gigawatt \u2013 of green electricity produced in Germany every year goes unused at present. This is easily enough to power 2.7 million vehicles for an entire year. But this way of thinking is still too one-dimensional. Let\u2019s take a company with 50 electrified pool vehicles and an in-house photovoltaic system. This system supplies green electricity for the offices and charges the vehicles at the same time. Because all vehicles are never on the road at the same time, the parked vehicles are used as interim storage and could do their part in supplying energy to the offices in bad weather, with the result then that less electricity has to be bought in from outside. What this means is that bi-directional charging further increases the attractiveness of electric mobility for fleets significantly \u2013 both from a cost perspective and in terms of sustainability.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]\n\n<div class=\"article_paragraphimage article_paragraphimage_left \" style=\"width: 40%;\">\n\t<div class=\"ap_img_wrapper mylightbox_hover\">\n\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.groupfleet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/1163x654_2-640x360.jpg\" class=\"attachment-vw_small size-vw_small open_mylightbox\" alt=\"\" data-full=\"https:\/\/www.groupfleet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/1163x654_2.jpg\" data-desc=\"\" \/>\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"article_paragraphimage_text\">\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\n<\/div>[vc_column_text]<span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><strong>The more green electricity is fed into the grid, the greater the fluctuation in supply.<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Higher storage capacities are therefore needed for this reason: this capacity can be generated by electric vehicles.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;128px&#8221;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;128px&#8221;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;128px&#8221;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;128px&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<div class=\"question-answer-modul abstractContentComponent parbase section\">\n<div class=\"iv-modul__question\">\n<div class=\"iv-modul__question\">\n<p><strong>The question of public charging possibilities is something that occupies the minds of many (potential) electric car users, whether private or business. What is the current situation in this regard?<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"iv-modul__answer\">\n<p>Enormous progress is being made here. Some 2,400 fast-charging stations are already available along the main transportation corridors in Europe as part of the IONITY network. Our intention is to extend this number to around 18,000 by 2025 together with strong partners. Since the start of May, we have also been working through our Group subsidiary Elli with the Volkswagen Financial Services subsidiary LogPay, which issues the Charge&amp;Fuel cards. This cooperation allows our customers to purchase electricity conveniently at more than 230,000 charging points throughout Europe. As to where we stand at present concerning charging: The first vehicles to source energy with Plug&amp;Charge are expected as early as next year. This means that the car authenticates itself independently at the respective charging station without the need to present a card. This will make life noticeably more convenient for frequent business drivers in particular.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<div class=\"iv-modul__question\">\n<div class=\"iv-modul__question\">\n<p><strong>Ms Temme, a personal question to conclude our interview: What about you: Do you drive an electric car \u2013 and if so, what is your experience to date?<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"iv-modul__answer\">\n<p>I have actually been driving an electric car for many years in my free time too and it has always worked out perfectly for me. Interestingly, I was at a filling station perhaps twice or three times during this period \u2013 in order to wash my car. In the days when I drove a car with a combustion engine, filling up was always more on my mind; with electric mobility, however, this is almost in passing \u2013 you hardly think about it any more.
