Siemens Solar Debuts Solar-Powered EV Charging Network: Press Release
Siemens Solar is thrilled to unveil its Solar-Powered Electric Vehicle (EV) Charging Network, launched on April 07, 2025. This pioneering initiative aims to install 2,000 solar-powered EV charging stations across North America and Europe by 2028, supporting the rapid rise of electric mobility with clean, renewable energy. Combining Siemens Solar’s advanced photovoltaic (PV) technology with cutting-edge charging infrastructure, this network addresses the growing demand for sustainable transportation solutions. This press release-style article offers a detailed exploration of the program, its technology, rollout plan, benefits, and its role in shaping the future of mobility, highlighting Siemens Solar’s leadership in renewable energy innovation.
The EV Revolution Meets Solar Power
The electric vehicle market is booming, with global EV sales surpassing 10 million in 2023, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA). However, charging infrastructure remains a bottleneck, often powered by fossil fuel-heavy grids. Siemens Solar’s Solar-Powered EV Charging Network tackles this challenge by integrating solar energy into charging stations, reducing reliance on non-renewable sources and enhancing EV sustainability.
“EVs are only as clean as the energy that powers them,” said Dr. Sarah Klein, Siemens Solar’s Mobility Director. “Our network ensures that every charge is green, aligning with the shift to zero-emission transport.”
Program Goals
The initiative targets:
- Network Growth: Deploy 2,000 charging stations by 2028.
- Sustainability: Cut CO2 emissions by 75,000 tons annually.
- Accessibility: Support 1 million EVs yearly.
- Innovation: Integrate smart charging technology.
Technology Behind the Network
The network uses SMX-Next panels (24% efficiency), fast-charging units, and battery storage to deliver reliable power.
System Features
Component | Feature | Benefit |
---|---|---|
SMX-Next Panels | 24% efficiency | High energy output |
Charging Unit | 50-150 kW fast charging | Charges EVs in 20-30 minutes |
Battery Storage | 50 kWh per station | Supports peak demand |
Each station, averaging 20 kW, can charge 10-15 EVs daily, with smart systems optimizing power flow.
Rollout Plan
- Phase 1 (2025): 200 stations in California and Germany.
- Phase 2 (2026-2027): 800 stations across the U.S. and EU.
- Phase 3 (2028): 1,000 stations, expanding to urban hubs.
Pilot Projects
California Network
20 stations in California, launched April 2025, charge 300 EVs daily, saving 500 tons of CO2.
Munich Hub
10 stations in Munich support 150 EVs daily, reducing grid load.
Impact
The network will save $10 million in fuel costs and cut emissions significantly.
Future Vision
Siemens Solar plans 10,000 stations by 2035, with wireless charging integration.
