Orchestrated Charging of Large Vehicle Fleets
Development of IT Solutions as the Basis for Energy Products
We undertake the development and implementation of an IT solution specifically designed to manage the charging processes of large vehicle fleets. This solution seamlessly integrates the tasks of key market players, such as energy traders and transmission system operators, into an end-to-end process.
The process encompasses all steps, from flexibility forecasting to the marketing and control of individual electric vehicles, as well as the accounting treatment of trading positions and the management of all relevant balancing groups. Expertise in energy markets, process design, requirements management, IT system development, and program management using agile methods is particularly critical for success.
