Prominent new member from the "New Mobility" sector has joined the German Association of the Automotive Industry (VDA): With The Mobility House from Munich, a visionary technology company joins the lobbying association and hopes to act as a contributor to efficient grid and energy market integration. "A successful mobility transition also requires a correspondingly fast-growing ecosystem," says the provider.

“We are very pleased to welcome The Mobility House as a new VDA member. For a successful transformation, we need a rapid and consistent expansion of the charging infrastructure in Germany and Europe,” explains Hildegard Müller, President of the VDA.

She wants to further tap the potential of electromobility with the new partner and sees an additional opportunity in the intelligent, grid-serving, and bidirectional integration of electric cars. This could optimize the transformation towards climate-neutral mobility and allow vehicles to make a valuable contribution to stabilizing the power grid, Müller believes.

E-mobility as a support for the grids

The increase in electromobility would create huge electricity storage capacities in the form of batteries in electric vehicles, which stabilize the power grid and optimize the use of renewable energies. Charging processes can also be automated and shifted to times when an above-average amount of CO2-free electricity from renewable energy producers is available in the grids, explains TMH further. Intelligent charging also takes into account the existing grid limitations at the house connection and in the distribution network. This makes electromobility a support.

“To achieve a faster expansion of renewable energies and a nationwide development of the charging infrastructure in Germany, networking the individual sectors is an important step. Only together will we be able to shape the new automotive world in such a way that we continue to secure innovation and market leadership while also fulfilling our responsibility towards the climate,” says Marcus Fendt, Managing Director of The Mobility House.

The grid-serving integration of electric vehicles is the solution and now it is necessary to create the regulatory framework for it, Fendt advocates. THM points to twelve years of market experience and numerous internationally successful pioneering projects with partners such as Renault, Daimler, Volkswagen, and Audi, as well as its manufacturer-neutral charging and energy management system ChargePilot and the underlying EV Aggregation Platform.
