GreenTec Awards

Emission-free electric mobility and innovative design are sweet at the Centre, the 21 April 2013 – again be GmbH & co. KG and the solar charger the EIGHT suggested Point.One for a prestigious award. The GreenTec Awards 2013 honor pioneers who go ahead on the way to a green future, a step. Companies to reduce technologies, products, innovations and services that contribute to preserve the environment in terms of environmental sustainability and pollutants will be nominated and awarded. Mobility is the company sweet with his solar charging station in the category”nominated. The EIGHT GmbH & co. aims KG to inspire people for emission-free mobility.

For this among other things the solar charging station has developed Point.One, which embodies all the positive properties of electric mobility, and which makes it possible that electric vehicles are a part of modern urban life. Thanks to innovative production technologies and a digital process chain has the company provide a platform for the efficient realization individually designed products. Environment and mobility are years in the Centre of attention. The pressure to find environmentally sound solutions and to implement, is growing. The degree of mobility of the world’s population is increasing, the resources are dwindling and emissions need to be reduced dramatically”, Christoph B. explains Rossner, managing partner at EIGHT. “Here we want to use the solar charger Point.One a character set, that is design leaning on through innovative technology, conservation of resources, a sustainable use concept and the organic forms of nature.” EIGHT is currently working in a joint project with ABB, BMW, RWE and other partners on a quick charging station for electric vehicles, which will be opened by mid-year. The station is at the BMW Welt in Munich. EIGHT developed a customized and aligned with the needs of users solar charging station for the new charging standard CCS / combo. As future-oriented interface between human, vehicle and renewable energy makes the solar charger the potential of emissionsfrier mobility visible, tangible and usable.
