Founder Dennis Schulmeyer Highlights the Future of Bi-Directional Charging and AI-Driven Energy Management at LADE GmbH's Presentation.

Dennis Schulmeyer, founder of LADE GmbH, discusses the potential and challenges of bi-directional charging in energy management. He emphasizes that while this technology offers significant opportunities for reducing grid load through electric vehicles (EVs), it also presents complexities due to the variability of renewable energy sources like solar and wind. The transition towards more renewables necessitates rapid adaptation to avoid increased CO2 emissions and manage rising transport costs associated with energy distribution. Dennis highlights how AI can aid in predicting energy prices and demands, thus optimizing usage patterns across households and companies by making grids more resilient against disruptions such as hacking. By integrating intelligent systems into our power infrastructure, we can achieve greater efficiency without relying solely on static "if-then" algorithms. Through collaborations like BeFlex—a consortium involving various institutions—LADE is advancing bidirectional technologies aimed at peak shaving or reduction strategies for businesses. Attendees are encouraged to explore further insights at their booth during a fair showcasing these innovations alongside popcorn treats.

Photovoltaic prices have fallen continuously in recent years - a trend that should translate into a growing market for off-grid solutions. Declining costs are crucial for rural electrification in particular, making sustainable energy supply economically viable in remote regions. However, so far many of these price advantages have not yet reached the people that need them most. Do existing framework conditions to foster rural electrification still work in this new market reality? Which measures are needed to ensure that cost reductions reach our target group? This session discusses strategies for improving the availability of low-cost off-grid solutions, financing and innovative business models. A look at successful practical examples shows which political, economic and technological levers need to be pulled to make off-grid PV accessible on a large scale.
