E-Mobility

Charging infrastructure for electric fleets in industry and commerce: 22 kW to 400 kW per charging point, integrated with PV and energy management — turnkey delivered.

Your fleet is going electric — the infrastructure decides whether it makes financial sense.

Key Takeaways

7 Min. Lesezeit

Swiss industrial and logistics companies face a structural decision: the Climate and Innovation Act (KlG) mandates binding decarbonisation pathways, and the operating costs of electric vehicles are already 3–5 times lower than diesel equivalents. Companies that build charging infrastructure now secure subsidies, fixed energy costs, and a head start ahead of the regulatory curve.

As an owner-managed specialist, we deliver your charging infrastructure turnkey — from grid connection through planning and construction to ongoing operations. Through targeted self-consumption optimisation, we integrate solar power directly into your charging park: up to 40% of charging energy can come from your own PV production — as demonstrated by the Hugelshofer project.

Charging infrastructure without integration

  • Grid electricity at 20–30 Rp./kWh for every charging session — no influence over energy costs
  • Peak loads from simultaneous charging drive demand charges higher
  • Charging infrastructure and PV system run uncoordinated — solar power is fed into the grid instead of being used
  • No energy management: charging by coincidence rather than by fleet schedule and solar irradiation

With Ampere Dynamic

  • Up to 40% of charging energy from own PV production — generation costs below 12 Rp./kWh
  • Intelligent load management prevents demand peaks — no unnecessary grid expansion
  • PV, storage and charging infrastructure as an integrated system with a single control unit
  • Real-time charge management synchronises fleet requirements, solar yield and grid consumption
100% grid power 40% solar power
Own energy share in charging park

Proof: The Hugelshofer charging park in practice

In May 2024, Ampere Dynamic commissioned Europe’s largest fast-charging park for electric lorries together with the Hugelshofer Group and selected partners — 28 charge points with up to 400 kW charging capacity, combined with a 1,001 kWp solar installation and real-time energy management. A 40-tonne vehicle charges fully in 90 minutes — the fleet operates without disruption.

The project won the Swiss Logistics Award 2024 and serves as an industry-wide reference project for the electrification of Swiss logistics.

How we deliver your charging park

Charging and grid infrastructure

From individual charging stations (22 kW AC) to complete fast-charging parks (400 kW DC), scalable from 10 to over 200 charge points. We develop a site-specific overall concept.

  • Grid registration, transformer stations and load management fully coordinated
  • Turnkey installation handed over ready for operation

PV ports and truckports

Your parking areas produce solar power whilst your vehicles charge. Bifacial modules deliver up to 25% additional yield from ground reflection.

  • Charging costs permanently reduced to 8–12 Rp./kWh
  • Protection for vehicles and charging stations against overheating

Energy management and self-consumption optimisation

An intelligent energy management system coordinates solar yield, charging requirements and grid consumption in real time — without manual intervention.

  • Demand peaks capped, demand charge overruns prevented
  • Charging processes prioritised according to fleet schedule logic and solar availability

Subsidies: What applies to your project

Both programmes operate on a budget basis — first-come, first-served:

  • ASTAG Sector Programme E-Truck (for SMEs with fewer than 250 employees): up to 40% of eligible investment costs, budget CHF 20 million, application period 2026–2027
  • KlG Net-Zero Roadmap (for large companies with over 250 employees): up to 50% of investment costs via individual decarbonisation plans
  • GREIV (for PV components from 100 kWp): up to 30% of PV investment in addition

We manage the entire subsidy process — no funding contribution goes to waste. More on BFE funding programmes

Frequently asked questions

How long does a charging park project take from enquiry to commissioning?

Typically 4–9 months depending on size and grid situation: feasibility study in 2–4 weeks, grid registration and building permit in 6–12 weeks, construction in 6–12 weeks. We coordinate the entire process with the grid operator and authorities.

Does my fleet necessarily need its own PV installation?

No — but it pays off in most cases. An integrated PV installation permanently reduces your charging costs from 20–30 Rp./kWh (grid power) to 8–12 Rp./kWh. For a medium-sized fleet with 50,000 kWh annual charging requirement, this represents annual savings of CHF 5,000–10,000 — the PV installation pays for itself in 4–6 years.

What charging capacity do I need for heavy commercial vehicles?

For 40-tonne e-trucks we recommend DC fast chargers with 150–400 kW — this enables a full charge within the mandatory rest period (90 minutes). For light commercial vehicles and vans, AC charge points with 22 kW suffice (overnight charging). We dimension the infrastructure based on your actual fleet schedule data.

What happens if the grid capacity is insufficient?

Load management and battery storage can replace costly grid expansion in many cases. A battery storage system buffers demand peaks, grid consumption remains constant — upgrading the grid connection is avoided. We analyse your grid situation as part of the feasibility study.
