The future of mobility is electric. How fast the transition from the internal combustion engine to e-mobility succeeds depends on the charging infrastructure. With our high-performance energy storage system, we enable high power charging even in places where the necessary power supply is not available. Last Tuesday, Darmstadt’s Mayor (Bürgermeister) Jochen Partsch was also informed about this and was able to test the high power charging solution directly in action.

The need for high-frequency ultra-fast charging is especially high in local public transport. As an alternative to depot charging, where enormous battery capacities have to be installed in the buses, route charging involves charging the bus by pantograph during passenger boarding or alighting times or, for example, at terminal loops over a CCS plug connection.

After a year of intensive development work and planning, we can proudly announce our entry into the electromobility market. The Adaptive AMPERAGE flywheel storage system makes ultra-fast charging at up to 300 kW possible almost anywhere in a manner that supports the grid. With this move, we are playing our part in ensuring the rapid expansion of electromobility, whether in rural or urban areas.

In August 2016, Adaptive Balancing Power GmbH was founded under the direction of Hendrik Schaede-Bodenschatz and Nicolai Meder as a spin-off from the Technical University of Darmstadt. The goal of the company is to commercialize 4th generation flywheel mass storage devices, which our founders had been researching since 2009.

Shortly after IAA Mobility, Munich again becomes the center of attention at the international trade fair for all things electromobility and charging infrastructure. Adaptive Balancing Power will be present on Stand B6.534. We look forward to seeing you there!

Fast charging in the time it takes to drink a coffee: Adaptive Balancing Power presents one-of-a-kind flywheel high-performance storage at the Power2Drive e-mobility trade fair.

The AMPERAGE Charge100 allows electric vehicles to be charged for travelling the next 60 odd miles in just a few minutes using a standard 63 amp high-voltage connection. Charging the vehicle almost fully takes about as long as a daily supermarket purchase (20 to 30 minutes).
