Last Thursday Baden-Württemberg´s Minister President Winfried Kretschmann visited us at our headquarters in Nuertingen. Kretschmann was especially interested in ADS-TEC Energy’s innovative fast charging technologies.

In front of our headquarters, the battery-buffered ChargeBox was presented to the Minister President and a charging process on the minister’s car was demonstrated live.

“To bring about the mobility revolution, we’re dependent on the further expansion of charging infrastructure and innovative fast charging systems. Storage specialists like ADS-TEC Energy are innovation drivers in the field of electromobility”, states Minister President Winfried Kretschmann.
