Following the successful launch and initial implementation of the comprehensive electric mobility product "ladenetz.de 360°", GP JOULE CONNECT has become another important partner.
Aachen. Following the successful development and operation of charging systems including load management and company car billing at its own site in Aachen and for other business customers, smartlab was able to gain GP JOULE CONNECT as another important partner for the ladenetz.de 360° product. As a comprehensive project planner for a wide range of energy topics, the services provided by GP JOULE CONNECT complement those of smartlab perfectly. GP JOULE CONNECT covers the following areas, among others: Installation and technical operation of hardware, sector coupling, energy management systems and the conceptualisation of large-scale projects. smartlab covers the information technology area with its backend system for the following topics: Access and charging system management, load management, interfaces and Europe-wide roaming and billing.
The advantage for ladenetz.de customers is that smartlab offers them a bundled service for all trades related to electromobility in public, semi-public and private spaces. In cooperation with GP JOULE CONNECT, scenarios such as larger car parks, neighbourhood solutions or charging parks can be implemented as required. Both hardware and IT requirements are thus ideally harmonised. As an experienced project developer, GP JOULE CONNECT specialises in the coordination of different interest groups and the joint and efficient achievement of objectives.
"With over 225 municipal utilities and 42 business partners as ladenetz.de members, it is very important to be able to respond appropriately to the many different requirements in the market. We are strengthening this position with our new partner GP JOULE CONNECT, which will support us and our customers with its extensive expertise and know-how in the field of electromobility, especially in larger tenders," says Thomas Schümmer from smartlab.
In addition, GP JOULE CONNECT customers now also have the opportunity to easily become a ladenetz.de customer and access smartlab's services. This expands GP JOULE CONNECT's product portfolio and represents a strategically important step for both parties.
"By cooperating with smartlab, we are expanding our solution system to include a high-performance charging network. The high level of agility between our two companies in particular allows us to respond to customer needs in a more targeted manner and react holistically - all from a single cooperation," says Torben Jöns (GP JOULE CONNECT).
