Recording of Wednesday, May 07, 2025 | The smarter E Europe Exhibition Program 2025 | Exhibition Program | Language: English | Duration: 11:36 .
The presentation introduces Cable-Sherpa, a company founded in 2024 by Helmut Kastler and his co-founders Erwin Konst and Andreas Affenteller. The company's focus is on solving the common problem of cable management for AC wall box car charging systems. Cables left lying on the ground can lead to safety hazards, damage, or inconvenience when they become dirty or wet. With electric vehicle adoption increasing rapidly—projected at 32 million residential chargers in Europe by 2030—the need for efficient cable management solutions becomes critical. Cable-Sherpa aims to capture between 2% and 10% of this market with its innovative product that organizes cables safely against walls using a simple design that allows easy one-handed operation even for handicapped users. Their system has been tested extensively and shown durability over thousands of cycles while reducing maintenance costs significantly compared to traditional setups without such management systems. Field trials have demonstrated strong user interest, with high satisfaction ratings from test participants across various European markets where their products are already available through multiple sales channels including direct-to-consumer models as well as partnerships with wholesalers and installers.
