Electromobility in Europe

The further development of electric mobility and the new discovery of cars as “rolling computers” with new functionalities by means of software updates are a key future issue in the German automotive manufacturing and supplier industry. Moreover, with the connection of the charging infrastructure with the energy supply network, electric mobility can become an important cornerstone in the energy transition.

Electric mobility is global key for climate-friendly mobility and innovation. Operating electric vehicles creates significant less CO2, especially in association with regeneratively produced electricity. In addition, electric vehicles can use their energy storage capabilities to compensate for fluctuations in wind and solar power, and thus support the expansion and market integration of these erratic sources of energy. The German federal government is promoting the development and ramp-up of electric mobility with an extensive package of measures that is being continually expanded and adjusted. This includes supporting research and development, buyer’s premiums for electric cars, expanding the charging infrastructure, and setting procurement goals for public agencies.

For several years we have been a strong partner for market-leading manufacturers of charging stations and the associated ground markings. To date, we have completed ground marking throughout Europe for customers such as Ionity, Mitsubishi, Volkswagen, BMW, Amazon, Greenmobility, Lidl, and Shell.
