About this project
<p style="text-align: justify"><span style="font-size: medium"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif"><span style="color: #000000">Project aims to develop prototype of mobile, fast charging station with electrical storage capacity for the areas with weak or limited power grid infrastructure. Mobile battery buffered charging station (further ePitStop) works as rechargeable electric storage. Mobile means transportable, heavy (about 300 kg) metal covered rack type cabinet on rolls/wheels. The ePitStop will be a mobile fast charger with built-in battery storage, a combination that provides great financial savings and unprecedented flexibility. It powers up through a regular power supply and then uses the battery as a storage buffer to fast charge electric vehicles (EV).</span></span></span></p> <p style="text-align: justify"><span style="font-size: medium"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif"><span style="color: #000000">Another developed product - the bus stop pavilion from solar modules with integrated charging station addresses common issues in densely populated cities in the general area of both small electric vehicles and mobile energy availability. The commercialization of the developed products will be particularly wide and it will be used in both public and private sectors</span></span></span></p> <p style="text-align: justify"><span style="font-size: medium"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif"><span style="color: #000000">The project relies on the merge of competencies of business and research. The Applicant and SINTEF have been cooperating so far with SINTEF contributing to development of Applicant’s technologies applied in manufacturing, in particular photovoltaic modules technologies. In this project, the partner from Norway will not only be responsible for testing the product in Northern climate conditions but also researching recycling possibilities of the prototype which is planned to be developed during project implementation. </span></span></span></p>
Bilateral cooperation results
Sinteff, a Norwegian independent research centre helped assess the recyclability and technological suitability of the developed product for the northern European climate. Strong partnership lead to the creation and commercialization of the product. In addition, working with partners created a unique opportunity to exchange experiences with experts in various fields and increase their business potential in other areas.
