SHERIDAN, WYOMING – Feb. 19, 2025 – Amperfied GmbH, a subsidiary of Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AG (HEIDELBERG), is making significant strides in expanding intelligent charging infrastructure through strategic partnerships with regional energy suppliers. Collaborations with organizations like Stadtwerke Walldorf and BürgerEnergieGenossenschaft Kraichgau eG (BEG Kraichgau) demonstrate the effectiveness of local cooperation in creating sustainable mobility solutions. These regional projects provide valuable insights that inform larger-scale charging infrastructure initiatives, making electric vehicles a more viable and appealing option for everyday use. "We are actively driving the energy transition in Germany with our nationwide charging solutions," says Robin Karpp, Managing Director of Amperfied GmbH. "The faster the public charging infrastructure is expanded in Germany, the more the use of environmentally friendly electric vehicles will increase."

Partnership with Stadtwerke Walldorf

Stadtwerke Walldorf has partnered with Amperfied to install 15 charge points at its headquarters, maximizing the use of electricity generated by the building's photovoltaic systems. "As a small municipal utility, we tend to stay in the region and have found a partner in Amperfied that is literally just a few hundred metres away from us," explains Pascal Klaiber, Head of Climate Protection at Stadtwerke Walldorf. Through its infrastructure subsidiary, DHV e-net, Stadtwerke Walldorf now manages the entire process, from installation and commissioning to backend connection. One successful project resulting from this partnership is the Partner-Port multi-storey car park in Walldorf, now equipped with 19 charge points. Future expansion to a three-digit number of charge points with dynamic load management is under consideration.

DHV e-net also acts as an independent Amperfied installation partner, working on projects beyond those for Stadtwerke Walldorf. For example, in Dielheim, DHV e-net installed an Amperfied AC charging station connect.public for BEG Kraichgau.

Successful Cooperation with BEG Kraichgau

BEG Kraichgau, located in Sinsheim, Baden-Württemberg, is committed to providing charging solutions powered by renewable energy, in addition to its work in energy generation and sales. Working with Amperfied, BEG Kraichgau implemented a comprehensive concept at a commercial site, enabling charging for employees, customers, and a local EV rental company. Intelligent load management optimizes the use of solar power, and the Amperfied backend facilitates billing for charging sessions, particularly for rental vehicles.

"We want to drive forward the energy transition in its entirety, including charging infrastructure and e-mobility," explains Florian Oeß, Deputy Chairman of BEG Kraichgau. "For us, Amperfied is a partner at eye level. The regional proximity and technical expertise were the deciding factors." BEG Kraichgau currently operates more than 40 public charge points and plans to further expand its infrastructure in partnership with Amperfied.

Projects Create Added Value Beyond the Region

"The expansion of the charging infrastructure starts locally: with the wallbox in the garage or multi-storey car park, the charging facility at the employer and the charge point next to the town hall. In addition to the large charging hubs on motorways or in supermarket car parks, these visible charging options influence the decision for or against an EV," emphasizes Robin Karpp. "The collaboration with energy suppliers such as Stadtwerke Walldorf and BEG Kraichgau shows how regional cooperation can drive forward a sustainable and efficient charging infrastructure, especially at a local level. Amperfied's strength lies in the combination of modern technology and an excellent relationship with partners and customers. We use this regional exchange to derive standards that also benefit customers outside the region."

Amperfied's Comprehensive Service Portfolio

Beyond its advanced charging technology, Amperfied offers a complete range of services designed to simplify the operation of charging infrastructure. This includes a backend system with integrated payment and billing solutions, integration of existing charge points, maintenance services, and flexible financing options that significantly reduce the initial investment for customers. This comprehensive approach positions Amperfied as a key player in the development of a robust and accessible e-mobility ecosystem.
