    The E-mobility market today

    Electro-mobility becomes more democratic

    It is the ability or property for people or objects to move in a space, by a means of transport using partially or totally electrical energy.

    Today, electromobility meets a major challenge in the fight against global warming. That of the replacement of polluting thermal engines by electric models more respectful of the environment.

    According to figures released by the IEA (International Energy Agency), the number of electric cars in circulation around the world has sharply increased in 2016. With more than 750,000 units sold (40% more than the previous year), the market of green vehicles has exceeded the symbolic bar of 2 millions of units.


    Some key figures:

    [su_list icon=”icon: circle-o” icon_color=”#59b77d”]

    • China has become the main market for electrically powered cars. With more than 336,000 new registrations, it concentrates more than 40% of global sales in 2016. Moreover, there are 200 million electric two-wheelers and more than 300,000 electric busses.
    • In second place is Europe with more than 215,000 green cars in 2016.
    • In Norway, electric cars account for 1/3 of new car sales.
    • Next come the United Kingdom, France (where electromobility represents only 1.5% of the market share), Germany, Sweden and the Netherlands.

  • Article : PowerTech solutions for Self-consumption

    [su_divider top=”no” style=”default” divider_color=”#1d5a4d” size=”1″ margin=”16″]
    [su_pullquote][/su_pullquote]

    Since July 2016, French national law supervises renewable energy Self-consumption for end users.

    Self consumption defines a producer (self-producer) that partially or completely consumes energy electric energy produced by his own installation.

    Self-consumption with batteries

    It represents a real advantage as it maximises energy consumption locally produced.
    Through this system, it is easier to reduce energy bill and get a return on investment.
    Adding a battery considerably improves its efficiency. This system storages the energy produced during the day (…). See the article (only in French)

    PowerTech Systems offers an advanced energy storage system with lithium ion technology. It entirely prevents from explosion or fire risks (…). See the article (only in French)

    The continuous supply of electrical energy is a key issue to be addressed

    The solar panels do not work at night and badly with bad weather. Also, wind turbines depend on wind conditions. Generators depend on the supply of gasoline.

    The energy generated at a certain time of the day must be stored to optimise domestic use, without disrupting supply and with permanent control of the remaining energy reserve.
    The batteries required for energy storage must be durable, reliable, environmentally friendly, and must be able to supply energy for long periods of time without being powered by the grid.

    The Self-consumption market in France

    In 2017,

    [su_list icon=”icon: circle-o” icon_color=”#59b77d”]

    • about 15 000 households self-consume their own-produced electricity,
    • and 5,000 other households sell their surplus.
    • According to the Commission de régulation de l’énergie (CRE), France has 14,000 self-consumers in 201
