ADAPTIVE Balancing Power completes relocation to new Pfungstadt site and doubles production area
The demand for ultra-fast energy storage and charging systems is growing rapidly. To respond to this trend, we have now successfully relocated and expanded our production site and offices from Darmstadt to Pfungstadt.
With the move to the new multifunctional building in the industrial area North-East in Pfungstadt, we have doubled our production area with options for further expansion.

ADAPTIVE Balancing Power takes Kirsten Jahn on board as Lead Market Entry & Portfolio
The market for electric mobility and the necessary charging infrastructure is highly dynamic. In order to cope with this growth, we are strengthening ourselves with Kirsten Jahn.

Solution for a mobility turnaround in the countryside: public transport is now also becoming electric in the countryside
Medium-sized, commercial bus companies form an important pillar of local public transport (LPT) in rural areas. However, electrification along the route poses major challenges for power grid operators and transport companies. That’s why, together with a consortium from research and industry, we have started building a new type of storage and charging network for electric buses in rural areas. In Bensheim, a new type of pantograph fast-charging station (high-power charger) is being installed at the bus station (ZOB) to enable safe, economical and flexible intermediate charging of electric buses. The special feature: by using modern high-power flywheel energy storage system, the e-buses can also be charged on the route without having to extend the power grid.

Ultra-fast charging in the business park: VarioPark relies on Adaptive Balancing Power
How well the transition to e-mobility succeeds depends heavily on the charging infrastructure and, in particular, on the available charging speed. Commercial users of electric vehicles in particular are often dependent on short charging times, i.e. ultra-fast charging at as many charging points as possible. VarioPark projects and develops business parks with high sustainability standards. Residents, tenants and visitors should now have the opportunity to charge their electric vehicles in the parks in minutes instead of hours. That’s why VarioPark has opted for Adaptive Balancing Power’s ultra-fast charging system and is currently implementing a project in Frankenthal, Rhineland-Palatinate. Others are to follow.

Adaptive Balancing Power is at the AEE Fachtagung 2022
Mobility is becoming increasingly electric and is contributing to the energy transition. However, the EU Clean Vehicles Directive also places new demands on public transport companies, particularly with regard to their electrical infrastructure.
Our colleague Florian Fröhlich will show how fast and easy route charging via pantograph can be implemented without a strong power connection and transformer at the 10th VDV AEE Symposium 2022 from July 5 to 6 in Berlin.

Smart Charge Boost: Adaptive Balancing Power introduces ultra-fast and flexible charging for e-vehicle fleets
More and more companies are converting their fleets to electric mobility – for economic, environmental, legal and social reasons. But also because many countries are planning to ban combustion engines and extend or introduce tax benefits for rechargeable vehicles. The challenge here is to always organize the charging processes for e-vehicles flexibly and in line with demand. At the “Fleet! Der Branchentreff” on June 1 and 2, 2022 in Düsseldorf, we will be presenting for the first time an all-in-one solution including a charging station for flexible and on-demand charging for company fleets.

Darmstadt Mayor Jochen Partsch visits Adaptive Balancing Power
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.

Adaptive Balancing Power initiates first tests for high power charging on public transport
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.

Adaptive Balancing Power enters the ultra-fast charging infrastructure for electric vehicles
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.

Adaptive Balancing Power celebrates its 5th anniversary
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.
