Schneider Electric Launches Charge Pro to Boost European EV Adoption

Schneider Electric, a leader in energy management and automation, has launched Schneider Charge Pro in Europe. This efficient EV charging solution targets commercial fleets and multifamily residences. It aims to accelerate EV adoption. This launch coincides with the EU’s Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD). The EPBD requires EV charging upgrades by 2027. Therefore, Schneider Charge Pro offers a timely solution to market complexities.

A Simplified Charging Solution for All

Schneider Charge Pro offers more than a charging station. It is a fully integrated, turnkey solution. This simplifies the entire charging process. Consequently, it benefits several key groups:

• CPOs and Building Owners: Charge Pro simplifies retrofitting and new EV charging facility establishment.
• Electricians: The system features a streamlined installation process.
• Fleet Operators: Open-system software efficiently tracks charging times. This simplifies employee reimbursement for at-home fleet vehicle charging.

Enhancing Charging Access and Efficiency with New Products

Two new products accompany Schneider Charge Pro to improve EV charging access and reliability:

• EVCE MFH (Multifamily Home): This solution manages power loads in real-time. It enables high-volume EV charging without overloading the building’s power supply or disrupting tenants.
• Cloud-Based Remote Monitoring Tool: This tool allows offsite pre-commissioning. This results in faster onsite commissioning through a single mobile app.

Schneider Electric’s Commitment to Electrification

Schneider Electric aims to lead the new energy era with innovative EV charging solutions. Chief Innovation Officer Nadège Petit explains, “As the market and regulations rapidly change, Schneider Electric continues to lead. Schneider Charge Pro builds on our long history of energy management innovation. It delivers an open, affordable, and efficient EV charging solution. This empowers businesses to electrify their fleets easily.” Petit adds that by simplifying EV adoption for all stakeholders—fleet operators, building owners, electricians, and multifamily housing—Schneider Electric enables EU regulatory compliance. Furthermore, the company helps businesses accelerate their electrification goals and drive the transition to sustainable energy.

Availability Across Europe

Schneider Charge Pro is currently available in France and Hong Kong. It will roll out to more countries throughout the year.
