Logistics Electrification
Turnkey e-truck charging infrastructure for logistics fleets: PV carport, energy management and up to 40% funding — everything from a single source. Swiss Logistics Award 2024.
Your logistics fleet goes electric — the energy supply determines whether it pays off.

Key Takeaways
6 Min. Lesezeit- 3–4x lower operating costs Electric truck operating costs are 3–4 times lower than diesel. With on-site solar power, charging costs drop permanently to 8–12 Rp./kWh, with up to 40% from your own PV.
- Europe's largest e-truck park 28 charge points at up to 400 kW DC and a 1,001 kWp PV installation, realised by Ampere Dynamic together with partners for Hugelshofer Services AG. Swiss Logistics Award 2024.
- 40% ASTAG subsidy available The ASTAG e-truck industry programme funds up to 40% of investment costs for SMEs under 250 employees, with a CHF 20 million budget on a first-come-first-served basis from 2026.
- Act before the 2030 deadline The KlG mandates a 50% CO2 reduction by 2030. Building charging infrastructure now secures funding, fixed energy costs, and a measurable lead ahead of the regulatory timeline.
- Turnkey, one contact Grid connection, charging infrastructure, PV carport, and energy management delivered from a single source with no interface risk.
The Swiss Climate and Innovation Act (KlG) sets legally binding decarbonisation pathways for Swiss companies. For logistics operators, this means a 50% CO2 reduction by 2030 and 90% by 2050 — against the baseline year. At the same time, the operating costs of electric trucks are already 3–4 times lower than diesel today. Those who build charging infrastructure now secure funding, fixed energy costs and a measurable lead ahead of the regulatory curve.
As an owner-managed specialist, we deliver your e-truck charging infrastructure on a turnkey basis — from feasibility study through grid registration and PV carport to ongoing operations. Through targeted self-consumption optimisation, we integrate solar power directly into your charging park: up to 40% of the charging electricity comes from your own PV production.
Proof: Hugelshofer Services AG — Europe’s largest e-truck fast-charging park
In May 2024, Ampere Dynamic, together with Hugelshofer Group, commissioned Europe’s largest fast-charging park for electric trucks: 28 charging points with up to 400 kW charging capacity, combined with a 1,001 kWp solar installation and real-time energy management. A 40-tonne e-truck charges fully in 90 minutes — the fleet operates without interruption to service.
The project won the Swiss Logistics Award 2024 and serves as an industry-wide reference project for the electrification of Swiss logistics. All deadlines were met and the budget was maintained.
Status quo vs. integrated energy strategy
Many logistics operators install charging stations — and purchase grid electricity at CHF 0.20–0.30 per kWh for them. That works, but it forgoes the biggest lever: the roof surface above the charging park.
Charging infrastructure without integration
- Grid electricity at CHF 0.20–0.30 per kWh for every charging event — no control over energy costs
- Simultaneous charging drives peak loads upward — demand charges increase
- PV installation and charging stations operate uncoordinated — solar power is fed into the grid rather than used on-site
- Two separate systems, two suppliers, no shared control logic
With Ampere Dynamic
- Up to 40% of charging electricity from own PV production — generation costs below CHF 0.12 per kWh
- Intelligent load management prevents peak loads — no unnecessary grid expansion
- PV, storage and charging infrastructure as an integrated system with a single control unit
- Turnkey from a single source: one point of contact for grid connection, PV, charging and operations
How we deliver your charging park
Feasibility study & grid analysis
We assess your site for grid capacity, roof area and subsidy eligibility — within 2–4 weeks, at no cost.
- Reliable overall concept with CHF figures
- Investment decision based on facts
Grid registration & planning permission
We coordinate grid registration, transformer station and building permission entirely with the grid operator and authorities — typically 6–12 weeks.
- Single point of contact, no interface risk
Construction: PV carport, charging points & energy management
Truckport structures with bifacial modules — up to 25% additional yield through ground reflection.
- Integrated energy management synchronises solar yield, fleet demand and grid consumption in real time
Commissioning & ongoing operations
Handed over ready for operation and grid-configured. Monitoring and service long-term — not just until the handover protocol.
Partnerships for sustainable logistics
Ampere Dynamic is a Solution Partner in the GS1 network and supports the Lean and Green initiative for sustainability in logistics. We are also a member of the “Green Logistics” working group of swisscleantech — working actively with other companies along the value chain towards the decarbonisation of freight transport.
