A charging system that uses an intermediate battery pack to absorb and deliver power between the grid and electric vehicles, letting cars charge quickly without overstressing local power supplies. Think of it as a temporary water tank that fills slowly from the mains but can pour out a lot quickly when needed; investors watch this because it reduces infrastructure costs, avoids expensive grid upgrades, and can speed adoption of electric vehicles and charging networks.
grid powertechnical
Electricity delivered through the public transmission and distribution network that connects central power plants, renewables and substations to homes, businesses and factories. Like tapping into a city’s water main instead of running a private well, grid power matters to investors because its availability, price, reliability and regulatory rules affect operating costs, capital needs, project viability and the value of companies that generate, use or support electricity.
battery storagetechnical
Battery storage is a system that stores electricity in large rechargeable batteries so power can be used later, like a reusable fuel tank for the grid. Investors care because it smooths out when energy is available vs. when it’s needed, can lower costs, create new revenue from selling stored power at peak times, and reduce reliance on unpredictable energy sources, affecting utility and clean-energy company valuations.
energy managementtechnical
Energy management is the set of practices and systems a business uses to monitor, control and reduce its use of electricity, fuel and heat, much like a household budget that tracks and cuts waste to lower bills. For investors it matters because effective energy management reduces operating costs, lowers exposure to price swings and regulations, and can signal efficient capital allocation and lower long-term risk—factors that influence profitability and valuation.

Battery-buffered fast charging enables up to 300 kW charging power even with limited grid power availability
Fast deployment and additional revenue streams through integrated battery storage and digital advertising displays
Expert presentation at Messe Stuttgart: “Electrifying Fuel Stations Without Grid Bottlenecks: Practical Solutions from the Field”
STUTTGART, Germany & NÜRTINGEN, Germany--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
As the number of electric vehicles continues to grow, everyday operations at fuel stations are changing as well. While filling up a conventional vehicle often takes only a few minutes, customers using fast charging typically remain on site 15 to 20 minutes for a quick purchase or a break during their journey. Especially along major transport routes, well-equipped locations are becoming increasingly important to commercial drivers as well. For operators, this creates new business opportunities. However, at many locations, the existing grid connection is still insufficient to support high-power fast charging.
At Uniti Expo 2026 at Messe Stuttgart, ADS-TEC Energy demonstrates how fuel stations can be electrified quickly and economically. At Hall 1, Booth 1Y02, the company showcases its battery-buffered ChargePost fast charger featuring an integrated battery storage system and digital advertising displays.
The system enables charging capacities of up to 300 kW even with comparatively weak grid connections between 22 and 87 kVA. This allows existing sites to offer ultra-fast charging without waiting for lengthy and costly grid expansion projects. In addition to charging revenues, operators can unlock further income streams through digital advertising on the integrated 75-inch displays and through intelligent energy management.
“Many fuel station operators want to offer fast charging, but in practice they face challenges such as limited grid capacity, high investment costs and long implementation timelines,” says Heinz Nowicki, Head of Sales at ADS-TEC Energy. “Battery-buffered solutions make fast charging quick to deploy while simultaneously opening up new economic potential at existing locations.”
ADS-TEC Energy has already delivered more than 3,700 charging points worldwide. The ChargePost alone is in operation at numerous fuel station locations across Europe. The company develops and manufactures its systems in Germany, focusing on long-term operational reliability and the integration of energy and charging infrastructure.
On Thursday, May 21, 2026, from 12:05 p.m. to 12:35 p.m., Sascha König, expert for battery-buffered fast charging at ADS-TEC Energy, will speak at the Future Mobility Forum on the topic: “Tankstellen elektrifizieren – ohne Netzengpass: Lösungen aus der Praxis” (“Electrifying Fuel Stations Without Grid Bottlenecks: Practical Solutions from the Field”).
