There are several challenges in building a charging infrastructure for bus and logistics depots, such as integrating with existing infrastructure, addressing grid constraints, and matching route and vehicle characteristics to support the most optimal vehicle and infrastructure solutions. That’s why we’ve developed flexible, customizable and space-saving charging infrastructure for eTrucks and eBuses. You can start with a few EV chargers and add more as your business grows, electrifying your depot incrementally.
Whether you want to charge buses and commercial vehicles at the depot or on-route at selected locations, our eDepot solutions have you covered with both AC and DC EV chargers. We also provide consulting for grid access if your depot doesn’t have the required power supply yet. Additionally, our storage solutions and cloud-based software solution for EV charging station management help you avoid peak loads and save energy costs by enabling you to benefit from flexible energy tariffs.
At Siemens, we pride ourselves on looking at the big picture while also paying attention to the details. In addition to depot electrification solutions, we offer everything you need for en-route charging. Our safe, reliable, high-power charging solutions include best-in-class hardware and services for high availability and efficiency.
Good planning and organization are necessary for optimal EV fleet management. We offer smart software-as-a-service packages that help you streamline your fleet operations, from infrastructure planning to charging station deployment, grid usage optimization and financial analysis. And with managed services, our team of experts will monitor your operations and provide support 24/7, guaranteeing charging readiness and uptime.
Our holistic approach doesn’t end there: We provide tailored services and continuous support throughout the lifecycle of your charging equipment. Our eMobility Services are always committed to your goals: starting with the commissioning of your new chargers through the first-hand trainings towards the long-term service agreements and spare-part services.
Improving energy ecosystems and building technologies are key to transforming cities and industries. Siemens combines technology and financing expertise to bring buildings and cities to life. At Siemens Financial Services, our deep technological knowledge and financing expertise means we understand the complex investment decisions behind the digital technologies that matter.
As part of our aim to tackle London’s air-quality crisis, we are continuing to grow our electric bus fleet, which is already one of the largest in Europe. This new charging facility at Westbourne Park is another step in the right direction.
