Amperfied GmbH, a subsidiary of Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AG (HEIDELBERG), is entering the market for fast charging solutions complete with a comprehensive range of services. At the Power2Drive trade fair in Munich, the company will unveil its modular DC fast charging solution called Amperfied Dynamic DC, which focuses on availability and efficiency. The offering is aimed primarily at the growing demand from charging parks, logistics depots and haulage fleets for high-availability system solutions. This is because only with fast and functional charge points can charging infrastructure operators (CPOs) generate sufficient revenue and satisfy their customers, while logistics companies can maintain their supply chains.

"Ensuring high throughput and availability is the key challenge for operators of charging infrastructure in charging parks, logistics or retail," explains Jürgen Otto, CEO of HEIDELBERG. "We are addressing precisely this need with a combination of the modular hardware of Amperfied Dynamic DC with dynamic power distribution, high scalability and space-saving design and a comprehensive, performance-oriented service offering, which is what HEIDELBERG can offer worldwide."

DC becomes part of the availability-based operating hours model

The future of commercial charging is expected to be in the growing DC fast charging market. This requires industrial-grade systems and service. "With 175 years of expertise in high-performance mechanical engineering and the reliable operation of capital goods, HEIDELBERG brings all of its industrial expertise to the table," explains Jürgen Otto. "With its close-knit service and logistics network, HEIDELBERG will ensure responsive support and high availability of charging infrastructure."

Amperfied will therefore also offer the announced DC product in a so-called availability-based operating hours model, which is based on HEIDELBERG's experience in the operation of capital goods and performance-based service offerings. Robin Karpp, Managing Director of Amperfied GmbH, explains: "Instead of buying pure hardware, our customers only pay when they can actually sell energy. This is how we create aligned interests. We are responsible for a functioning charging infrastructure. The operators only have to worry about the utilization of the charging park." This minimizes the financial risk for operators and reduces the initial investment.

With Amperfied, HEIDELBERG aims to become one of the leading system providers of charging solutions for companies and public spaces in Europe in the medium term. The focus is on the operation of charging infrastructure with the aim of maximum availability and reliability as a service with stable recurring revenues.

Debut at the Power2Drive 2025

The new Amperfied Dynamic DC fast-charging solution will be revealed at the Power2Drive trade fair from May 7 to 9, 2025. Experts will be on hand to explain the solution to interested visitors at Amperfied's booth C6.630. The product is designed for the European market and will be launched in the DACH region from 2026.
