AMPECO and Peblar accelerate sustainable EV charging with advanced solar integration across Europe

We’re proud to announce an enhanced partnership with AMPECO to bring advanced solar charging capabilities to EV drivers across Europe. By combining our intelligent, solar-optimized charging hardware with AMPECO’s powerful charging management platform, we enable homeowners to get the most out of their solar energy—reducing charging costs and maximizing renewable energy usage. This integration represents a significant step forward in delivering seamless, smart, and sustainable charging experiences.

Optimizing Solar Energy for EV Charging

Peblar charging stations feature integration with measurement sources that read out the household power usage or generation from smart meters, enabling precise energy management. The hardware and firmware support three distinct solar charging modes: Smart Solar for intelligent energy management, Pure Solar for 100% solar-powered charging, and Fast Solar for optimized charging speed with renewable energy integration.

AMPECO supports charging based on dynamic tariffs, allowing consumers to not only optimize their charging strategy on real time solar generation, but also to plan ahead based on the price of energy. By leveraging the synergy between the charger and the backoffice system, users can take advantage of smart solar charging techniques over time - ultimately reducing the total cost of each charging session.

Growing Market Demand for Solar EV Solutions

With Europe in the midst of summer's peak solar generation and rising numbers of EVs on the road, the integration of Peblar and AMPECO addresses growing demand for sustainable and cost-effective charging options. Solar power has become the fastest-growing electricity source, with countries like the Netherlands and Germany embracing residential solar at impressive rates.

The integrated solution allows homeowners to maximize their solar investments while reducing grid dependency and energy costs.

"This partnership with Peblar demonstrates our commitment to enabling renewable energy in EV charging," said Glenn L’Heveder, Head of Sales and BD Europe at AMPECO. "Our platform addresses the unique challenges of solar EV charging through innovative OCPP configuration and intelligent scheduling, making it easier for operators to offer sustainable charging solutions."

 

Juan Bernal, Head of Strategic and Product Marketing at Peblar, added: "At Peblar, we’re committed to delivering seamless and sustainable charging experiences that truly serve EV drivers. Partnering with AMPECO allows us to integrate advanced technologies like intelligent load balancing and dynamic pricing, so customers get the maximum value from our solutions while enjoying a smoother, smarter charging journey."

 

This integration enables operators to offer customers sustainable charging solutions that reduce energy costs while maximizing environmental benefits. The combined hardware-software approach provides CPOs with comprehensive tools to manage solar energy optimization across their charging networks, creating new revenue opportunities in the growing renewable energy market.
