E3/DC Unveils TÜV and CE Certified Bidirectional Charging System for German Market, Featuring AI360 Integration.

E3/DC, a German company and part of the Hager Group, specializes in developing bidirectional chargers and home power stations. These systems integrate hybrid solar inverters with proprietary energy management software (EMS) and batteries to create an all-in-one solution for residential use. E3/DC has installed approximately 150,000 systems across Germany, emphasizing their expertise in this field. The company's latest innovation is the S10 M setup designed for bidirectional charging—allowing energy transfer between electric vehicles and homes—and it adheres to strict German regulations regarding grid loads. Their Edison solution launched three years ago demonstrates successful implementation throughout Germany by leveraging AI360 technology that connects various household devices including cars for efficient energy management. This system supports dynamic pricing models which can optimize electricity costs through intelligent load shifting strategies like peak shaving or backup solutions during outages while maintaining full connectivity even under emergency conditions via its robust infrastructure compliant with ISO 15118 standards as officially partnered with Volkswagen Group brands.

The smarter E Europe Conference 2023 | Conference Program

The pressing need to mitigate the impact of climate change and to deal with the ongoing energy crisis requires a new regulatory framework in Europe. This is why the European Commission has presented a legislative proposal for the adaptation of the EU Electricity Market Design in Q1 2023. But how would this new framework impact the energy storage market? How would the provision of flexibility be encouraged? How would existing entry barriers for energy storage be further reduced? In this panel, representatives from the EU, utilities, IPPs and storage providers will be discussing whether the new market design is suitable for incentivizing both the necessary energy storage installations and ideas for future improvements.
