Turn obligation into opportunity
Across Europe, regulations such as EPBD and AFIR are accelerating the rollout of EV charging across commercial real estate. For retail, that makes charging more than a future ambition. It is becoming part of the site itself.
Done right, it does more than support compliance. It becomes an opportunity to optimise energy use, reduce costs and enhance the customer experience.
The challenge is energy.
Retail environments are already energy-intensive. Refrigeration, HVAC, lighting and daily operations consume a significant share of available capacity. Adding EV charging introduces new pressure, from the risk of exceeding contracted grid capacity to rising energy costs driven by peak demand.
For retailers operating across multiple locations, that challenge scales quickly. At the same time, customers expect reliable and convenient charging, and regulation leaves little room for delay.
Smappee connects your chargers directly to the building's energy management.
Most solutions focus on preventing overload. Smappee goes further by actively optimising how and when energy is used.
Our platform integrates EV charging into your full energy system and manages it based on real-time building consumption, available grid capacity, on-site solar production and dynamic energy tariffs.
That means you do more than stay within your limits. You also charge at the most cost-efficient moments and make better use of the energy already available on site.
Grid stability
Avoid peak demand and grid-related issues.
Cost predictability
Use smart scheduling to charge at more cost-efficient moments.
Use more local energy
Maximise the value of on-site solar production.
Scalable rollout
Roll out charging across multiple sites with greater control.
Smappee connects chargers directly to your building's energy management. Instead of treating it as a standalone load, it becomes part of the total site demand that is managed in real time.
Continuously monitoring
We track what the site is drawing at any given moment, from refrigeration and HVAC to lighting and other core store systems. Available capacity is monitored continuously so charging can respond accordingly.
Real time
Charging power is adjusted automatically in real time. Core retail operations always get the power they need first, while charging uses the remaining capacity dynamically without pushing the site beyond its limits.
Built to scale
From one store to a multi-site retail portfolio, each location stays within its technical boundaries. Central monitoring gives you visibility into consumption, charging sessions and capacity usage site by site, helping rollout stay controlled as your network grows.
The right charging mix for your location
Different retail formats need different charging speeds, but the real value comes from managing them all within one energy-aware system.
Designed for European retail reality
Energy constraints and capacity tariffs are becoming a structural reality across Europe. Retail expansion and electrification must work within these limits. Smappee is built for that environment, helping you comply with regulations, optimise energy use and future-proof your locations.
Supported by a strong partner network
Together with certified partners, Smappee ensures smooth deployment and ongoing optimisation of your EV charging infrastructure.
From installation to long-term performance, you benefit from reliable support and continuous improvement.
