sun2wheel - the origin of the future

No background, no future. Find out who we are, how sun2wheel came about, what milestones we have achieved and how we want to shape the future with our charging solutions.

April 2024

Start of the research project with the DPD vehicle fleet which becomes a power bank for electricity grids.

Sept 2022

Start of V2X Suisse pilot project with Mobility – 50 electric cars become power banks.

Dec 2020

Foundation of Sun2wheel together with EVTEC

And what comes next?

  • Further participations as well as research and pilot projects to promote bidirectional charging and grid-friendly charging in Switzerland

  • Fleet management for companies to control the charging of company fleets in a targeted, grid-friendly and cost-optimised manner

  • Cooperation with distribution grid operators with the aim of avoiding grid overload through grid-friendly charging and minimising the costly expansion of the copper infrastructure

  • Bidirectional charging also in apartment blocks and rental properties

  • Intelligent charging when bidirectional charging is not possible, i.e. optimisation of self-consumption and costs with charging only at low tariff or demand

  • User-centred load management for multiple charging stations so that each user can control their needs individually (load management mandatory for three or more devices)
