Charge up in Public!

MENNEKES charging solutions for cities and energy suppliers

The registration numbers for fully or partially electric vehicles are growing from month to month. With increasing numbers, our cities are also changing. New solutions are also needed in the public sector to charge electric vehicles in a safe and user-friendly way. Of course, electromobility places far-reaching demands on all those involved - but above all it also offers great opportunities.  

Get started now and let yourself be accompanied by an eMobility pioneer who develops customised solutions for your individual requirements - well thought-out solutions as you would expect from a pioneer of eMobility.

eMobility – take your chance!

Charging takes place wherever cars are parked. Especially in the public sector this creates valuable opportunities for cities and energy providers. Charging systems that blend harmoniously into the cityscape and are available at different locations not only make city centres more environmentally friendly, they also offer electricity suppliers the opportunity to attract new customers. 

The energy required for charging electric vehicles must be provided efficiently and professionally. From single charging points to widespread charging solutions - there are numerous ways to implement and economically operate electromobility.

What to consider when setting up public charging infrastructure

A needs-based and future-proof charging infrastructure in the public sector has a wide range of requirements so that it can be operated economically. MENNEKES offers intelligent solutions that have already proven themselves in everyday practice.

Direct mains connection

Charging points in public spaces are often connected directly to the electrical supply network. Here, the technical connection conditions of the utility grid operators must be observed. MENNEKES has developed a solution integrated into the charging station and thus an alternative to indirect grid connection.

Operational safety

High availability of the systems is ensured by the low-wear connectors and mechanics. The consistent use of industrial components designed for the environmental conditions also increases the reliability of the hardware. Of course, MENNEKES also continues its commitment to quality with regard to the software used and the communicative connections.

Service and maintenance

For an economic efficiency calculation it is of decisive importance how service and maintenance-friendly the charging infrastructure is.  

For this purpose, MENNEKES offers, among other things, separate access options for supply network operators and traction current providers, a clear structure of the electrotechnical distribution with free access options as well as convenient setting options via web browser without separate software installation.

Easy handling

The operation of the charging station must be simple, understandable and uncomplicated for the user - even for the very first use. Our charging systems therefore include, for example, user guidance via a plain text display, convenient activation via an RFID card or smartphone app and one-handed operation for opening the flaps and inserting the plug.

Accountability

Charging in public spaces is already billed by the traction power provider today. Flexibility of charging systems and software solutions for charging is crucial for a successful business model.

Publication of charging points and real-time data

Among other things, it is crucial that the customer also finds the charging points - no driver sets off if he is not informed about the status of the nearest charging point. During the charging process and afterwards, it is crucial for the customer's experience to be able to view the charged energy and the resulting costs in real time. Via the modular, cloud-based software solution "chargecloud", you can make charging the e-car as convenient and transparent as possible for your customers in some countries.

Protection against vandalism

The systems are openly exposed to the weather and unfortunately also to vandalism. Therefore, the demands on the housing and connectors are high. MENNEKES only uses high-quality components that always ensure maximum protection.
