Neckarsulm Audi is installing battery-powered recharge stations
January 16, 2023Audi is building 72 additional charging points for electric vehicles at its Neckarsulm site through the use of so-called cubes, which use used lithium-ion batteries from dismantled Audi test vehicles to store electricity.
The cubes feed a total of 48 charging points and expand the charging capacity for employees and visitors to the Neckarsulm site in multi-storey car park 1 to the south-east of the Audi plant.
One cube with a further 24 charging points is located in the car park at the north-eastern boundary of the plant.
All three cubes together have an energy content of 1.58 MWh, i.e. just over 500 kWh per container cube.
These are each charged overnight with a 70 kW supply line at a low grid load.
