XCharge Europe Unveils Net Zero Series: Innovative DC High Power Chargers with Integrated Battery Storage for Efficient Energy Management

Christoph Ebersdorfer, the sales manager of XCharge Europe GmbH, introduced their company as a global manufacturer specializing in DC high-power chargers with integrated battery storage solutions. Their product portfolio includes three types of DC chargers capable of delivering up to 400 kilowatts and has been listed on NASDAQ since last year. The focus was on their net zero series charger that integrates battery storage for energy management within microgrids and macrogrids. He explained how traditional power plants allowed easy control over energy production but highlighted challenges posed by renewable sources like solar and wind due to their dependency on weather conditions. To address this, XCharge's solution offers bidirectional charging capabilities combined with photovoltaic integration for smart energy management—enabling efficient use during peak times or when grid prices are unfavorable. Real-world applications include office buildings using rooftop solar panels alongside these systems to manage internal loads such as air conditioning while providing EV charging services efficiently throughout the day without relying heavily upon external grids at night-time hours where tariffs might be higher than usual rates available elsewhere instead!
