The demand for electric vehicles is increasing. The population has increased more than fifty-fold worldwide since 2012. In 2007 there were a total of 8 new registrations of electric cars in Germany. 2019 194,163 new registrations of electric vehicles! From January to May 2021 there were already 115,296 new registrations. The trend will continue to develop accordingly. Solar carports are already interesting investment goods. This also means an increase in the attractiveness of the production and company location for personnel and customer development.

Suitable for:

• Plan solar carport

A solar carport alone is not enough. Fundamental questions need to be clarified. Should the energy generated be fed into the grid or parked in energy or electricity storage? What are the load profiles, the technical connection conditions, number of charging stations, vehicle downtime and ultimately the specified total PV output? Will the charges be recorded with the company if the employee charges their company car from home? These are questions that we will have to deal with in the future. It is different from what we are used to today.

• Charging infrastructure for electromobility in Germany
• Electromobility is coming slowly, but it is coming

Number of electric cars worldwide – Image: Xpert.Digital

New record for the global number of electric cars - around 10.9 million electric cars were registered worldwide in 2020, over three million vehicles more than in the previous year. The stock has increased more than fifty-fold since 2012. In view of increasing air pollution and dependence on fossil fuels, alternative drives such as electromobility are playing an increasingly important role in motorized individual transport.

Number of new registrations of passenger cars with alternative drives – Image: Xpert.Digital

Number of new registrations of passenger cars with alternative drives in Germany in 2019 and 2020: Hybrid vehicles are the most common alternative to the conventional fuel types petrol and diesel - a total of around 527,900 passenger cars with hybrid drives were newly registered in 2020. Hybrid drives combine different drive technologies. Plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEV), for example, have an internal combustion engine and also an electric motor that draws its energy from a rechargeable battery. Battery electric cars (BEVs) were the second most newly registered among alternative drive systems. Battery electric vehicles draw their energy exclusively from a built-in and rechargeable battery. The alternative fuels natural gas and liquid gas played a relatively minor role.

Electric vehicles are eligible for subsidies in Germany

The purchase (or leasing) of various types of electric cars can be subsidized in Germany through the so-called environmental bonus. Vehicles that are registered for the first time are eligible for funding. To date, environmental bonuses have most often been applied for purely battery-powered electric vehicles.

Alternative drives with growing market share

Both hybrid cars and electric cars have seen greater demand in recent years. The proportion of cars with diesel and gasoline engines is falling accordingly.

Suitable for:

• Charging stations and solar carports together make sense: the circle closes
• Solar carports as a further step for the growing charging station infrastructure
