Charge Amps, a Swedish provider of smart charging solutions for electric cars, has announced the launch of a new feature enabling solar-powered charging.
The company’s Green Charging technology enables owners of Charge Amps charging stations to solely use energy generated from solar panels to charge their car, or to combine solar-powered charging with charging from the grid.
The solution, which requires the Charge Amps Amp Guard measurement device, Charge Amps App for intelligent scheduling and, of course, solar panels, works for both single and multi-family homes as well as offices.
Anders Bergtoft, CEO at Charge Amps, said: “Electric car charging needs to be accessible, smart, sustainable and easy, and we are always working on ways to ensure that we are at the forefront of all four.”
“This is why we are introducing Green Charging. A simple, sustainable, and cost-efficient way to charge your car using solar power.
“We feel confident that this will be a helpful and welcomed launch by existing and future Charge Amps customers and I am proud to be adding yet another intelligent smart feature to our cloud platform.”
Founded in 2012, Charge Amps develops intelligent charging stations, cables, and dedicated cloud software for use at home, in connection to commercial properties and offices and in public environments.
Since the launch of its first charging station in 2015, Charge Amps has reportedly provided more than 115,000 chargepoints for customers in more than 15 markets.
