Siemens and MAHLE sign letter of intent for wireless charging of electric vehicles
Setup for wireless charging of electric vehicles
One aspect of the planned cooperation
includes coordinated standardization efforts in the relevant
pre-standardization and standardization bodies. The goal is to close gaps to
ensure full interoperability between vehicles and the charging infrastructure.
In addition, there are plans for a close
exchange of ideas to develop a complete inductive charging system for electric
vehicles. MAHLE aims to contribute its many years of experience as an
automotive supplier and Siemens its expertise in the field of charging
infrastructure.
“We are very pleased to have found a strong
partner in Siemens in order to make major advances in inductive charging. The
combined experience of both companies will give us a clear competitive
advantage,” said Harald Straky, Vice President for Global Development in
Mechatronics and Electronics at MAHLE.
Both parties are also planning extensive
interoperability and cross-testing between the charging equipment on the
vehicle (secondary coil) and the charging infrastructure (primary coil). This
will allow for technical improvements and validation of inductive charging
systems for electric vehicles and ensure interoperability. Some of the testing
will be performed as part of publicly funded projects.
As a full-service provider for eMobility
charging infrastructure, Siemens eMobility offers a complete range of
state-of-the-art AC and DC charging hardware, software and services – from
residential to commercial to depot applications. “Siemens’ core expertise in
smart buildings and smart grids makes us uniquely positioned to meet our
customers’ needs with comprehensive solutions and to help them design, install
and manage sustainable charging solutions for a better future,” Perras added.
