ems-charge EV charging station in use

From pump to plug, without the downtime

The forecourt already has the land, the traffic and the canopy. Add DC 120–360 kW with on-site storage and a hybrid AC/DC retrofit — and keep the pumps running while you convert.

The Fuel-Station Problem

The forecourt is at risk if it doesn't convert.

Closure risk

25% of stations may close by 2035

Up to a quarter of fuel stations could shut by 2035 and fuel profit could fall 60%. Charging is the conversion that keeps the site alive.

Thin margin

~1% net margin on the pump

Fuel nets roughly 1% of the pump price; the store keeps the site profitable. A charger turns a short fuel stop into a 20–30 minute store visit.

Momentum

Shell is divesting 1,000 stations

Shell is shedding 1,000 stations in two years to shift capital into charging. Retailers that wait lose the best conversion windows.

What a Conversion Needs

Three capabilities, zero forecourt downtime.

DC 120–360 kW

A highway-facing fast charge that fits the 10–20 minute fuel-stop habit drivers already have.

On-site storage

Battery storage shaves the peak the grid can't deliver, so you can install fast charging without a long grid upgrade.

Hybrid AC/DC retrofit

Add AC for longer stops and DC for the quick charge, in phases — the pumps keep selling while the chargers go in.

The ems-charge Solution

DC plus storage, phased in beside the pumps.

A fuel-station conversion is a capital project, not a cable drop. We phase DC and storage in around the existing forecourt so revenue never stops.

  • DC 120–360 kW for the 20-minute stop, with AC pedestals for longer dwell.
  • On-site storage bridges the grid gap and cuts demand charges.
  • OCPP 2.0.1 ties charging into your payment and loyalty stack.

DC plus storage, side by side

A fast charger paired with a battery cabinet shaves peak demand and lets a forecourt sell power at off-peak prices.
