Siemens eMobility has been chosen as the technology partner for two electric vehicle charging infrastructure projects in Italy-Autolinee Toscane and IPLANET, which aim to boost the electrification of public transport and the transformation of traditional service stations into strategic areas for electric mobility.
The first project sees Siemens working alongside Autolinee Toscane, one of the most important public transport operators in the region, part of the RATP DEV Italia group. The goal is to support the roll-out of the company’s zero-emission bus fleet with a series of 73 SICHARGE UC charging points, which will provide charging power between 100 kW and 150 kW. The stations will be distributed in depots in Florence, Prato and Lucca, ensuring efficient and reliable operations for public transport in Tuscany.
With smart charging logic and battery pre-conditioning capabilities, the company will be able to optimize fleet management, with detailed reports on the kilometers traveled by each vehicle.
In the second project, Siemens eMobility will provide charging infrastructure to IPLANET, a leading provider of energy transition solutions. More than 120 logistics sites will be equipped with 300-400 kW charging points, with the capacity to handle fast charges and offer a reliable, fully remotely monitored network. Each site will be equipped with medium- and low-voltage electrical distribution systems, scalable compact substations, and remote control systems to ensure optimal energy management, with a focus on integration with renewable sources.
“Projects like these demonstrate how Siemens eMobility is bringing sustainable mobility into everyday life. By combining cutting-edge technologies with strong partnerships, we are helping to transform the transportation and logistics sector for a greener future,” said Markus Mildner, CEO of Siemens eMobility.
