Badenova drives e-mobility forward: 1,000 charging points for logistics!

Wildau, Deutschland - in Brandenburg, a lot is happening in the field of electrical mobility, especially in the freight forwarding and logistics industry. The provider Badenova has been one of the pioneers since 2017 when it comes to expanding charging infrastructure. With the focus on trade, housing industry and municipalities, Badenova has the 1,000 last year. Loading into operation and expanded your portfolio with fast loading solutions for electrical trucks. The aim is to help logistics companies to make their fleets future -proof and to actively contribute to the energy transition.

What moves the industry? The implementation of the climate goals plays a central role. According to the numbers of Badenova AG & Co. KG , almost 30% of the traffic -related greenhouse gas emissions in Germany come from heavy commercial vehicles. The Federal Government's climate protection program stipulates that 30% of the mileage in road freight traffic should already be electrical by 2030. Therefore, Badenova relies on innovative solutions that should help the freight forwarders to switch to electromobility.

The way to electromobility is lined with challenges that Badenova is concerned with with a modular full-service package. This includes not only the individual needs analysis and the evaluation of the connection situation, but also energy management, planning, construction and operation as well as monitoring. Dr. Susanne Baumgartner, head of electromobility at Badenova, emphasizes that charging infrastructure must be seen as part of the overall operating process.

An example of the implementation of these concepts can be found at August Gschwander Transport GmbH, which has installed seven ultra-fast loaders from the manufacturer Alpitronic at five locations in Baden-Württemberg. These charging systems offer a charging capacity of up to 400 kW and are therefore ideal for the needs of modern logistics companies.

The role of manufacturers and the national control center

But how is it ensured that the charging infrastructure meets the requirements of the industry? The “Cleanroom talks” that took place in 2022 with truck manufacturers play an important role here. These are protected conversations conducted by institutions such as BMV and NOW GmbH. The aim of these discussions was the query of production numbers of alternative drives for heavy commercial vehicles and the collection of data on drive strategies and infrastructure requirements. This information is crucial for the targeted structure of infrastructures that support the future market high run.
