High-power charging and vehicle-to-grid technology

The partnership focuses on integrating high-power Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) charging capabilities into Windrose's electric truck infrastructure. The technology enhances the efficiency of e-truck operations and reduces logistics companies' total cost of ownership (TCO).

By enabling e-trucks to draw power and return surplus energy to the grid, the collaboration aims to maximise energy efficiency while supporting grid stability.

Kurt Vandeputte, CEO of Smappee, says:  "We are pleased to partner with Windrose, a forward-thinking, ambitious company with whom we share common goals in e-mobility around innovation, sustainability and operational efficiency.

"Together, we are paving the way for the next generation of e-trucks and smart charging solutions, making it easier for companies to adopt electric mobility."

A shared vision for sustainable logistics

The strategic collaboration involving Smappee and Windrose reflects a shared commitment to advancing sustainability in the logistics and transport sector. Both companies are aligned in their mission to develop future-proof solutions that facilitate the global shift toward electric mobility.

By combining Smappee's energy management expertise with Windrose's electric transport leadership, the partnership aims to set new benchmarks for efficiency and innovation.

As demand for sustainable logistics grows, partnerships like this one are crucial for driving meaningful progress.

By focusing on smart charging infrastructure, energy management and high-power V2G technology, the partners are not only meeting today's needs but also laying the groundwork for a more sustainable future.

"Together, Smappee and Windrose are making the shift to e-truck fleets practical, sustainable and economically viable," adds Kurt. "This collaboration is a testament to what can be achieved when two forward-thinking companies unite to tackle the challenges of tomorrow."
