Mobility will install at least 300 e-charging stations at locations throughout Switzerland by 2023. For this purpose, it uses the JUICE CHARGER 2 from Juice Technology AG.
Juice Technology AG, manufacturer of charging stations and software, and a leader in mobile charging stations for electric vehicles, supplies the JUICE CHARGER 2 AC stations for the electrification of mobility locations throughout Switzerland. Both companies are thus making a major contribution to electromobility in car sharing.
By 2030 at the latest, the market-leading Swiss car-sharing company Mobility will convert its entire vehicle fleet - a total of over 3,000 vehicles - to emission-free electric drive. At the same time, the e-charging infrastructure is being rapidly expanded. As a first step, at least 300 e-charging stations are to be put into operation at Mobility locations throughout Switzerland within the next three years.
Juice and Mobility – a proven partnership
In order to ensure that the various electric car models in the Mobility fleet can be reliably supplied with electricity, the company relies on simple, uniform charging processes when electrifying its locations. Juice Technology already proved last year that its charging stations meet these requirements. At the end of 2020, the charging station manufacturer equipped the first parking spaces for Mobility with charging infrastructure in Zurich and Aarau in cooperation with SBB, Mobility's largest and most important location partner. The two companies are now working directly together.
"We are proud to be able to support Mobility on its way to emission-free car sharing and the electrification of its vehicle fleet. Our joint launch in SBB parking lots has shown that innovative charging technology and quality are clearly proving their worth. We look forward to continuing our partnership beyond locations close to train stations," says Christoph Erni, CEO of Juice Technology AG.
JUICE CHARGER 2 – an AC charging station without compromise
Juice Technology supplies the JUICE CHARGER 2 AC charging stations for the electrification of the mobility locations.
"The biggest hurdle in electrifying our fleet is setting up an e-charging network. That's why we've brought experienced partners like Juice on board to be able to implement this project and drive the expansion forward as quickly as possible," says Roland Lötscher, Managing Director at Mobility. "The future belongs to e-mobility and we want to be a pioneer."
To guarantee customers maximum convenience when using the JUICE CHARGER 2, the high-resolution touch display enables simple and intuitive operation. The intelligent, omnidynamic and infinitely scalable load management system makes it possible to manage and control the charging processes of all connected cars easily and centrally. The calibrated electricity meter installed in the JUICE CHARGER 2 ensures clean billing, and activation is carried out via the integrated NFC/RFID reader.
Facts about the JUICE CHARGER 2
- Compatibility: The 22 kW wall charging station is compatible with all electric cars that have a Type 2 or Type 1 connection and allows three-phase charging with up to 32 amps. It offers complete safety according to current standards and can be operated between -25 and +45 degrees Celsius.
- Housing: Its robust stainless steel housing is corrosion-resistant and easy to clean. A lightweight 3-meter cable ensures comfortable handling. The housing is jet-water and dust-proof according to IP65.
- Safety : The integrated technology offers effective protection against AC and DC faults. Permanent earth conductor monitoring ensures safety. Temperature monitoring protects against overheating and the metal housing is fire-retardant.
- Installation: The wallbox is simple and quick to install. The connection can be made by any trained electrician. No special training or certifications are necessary.
- SmartJuice: Thanks to standard SmartJuice components, the JUICE CHARGER 2 has freely scalable, omnidynamic charging and load management for one to an infinite number of parking spaces. This enables real-time monitoring of the power quantities and status of the connected vehicles, as well as prioritization of the charging processes of individual cars. The wallbox takes into account the individual charging characteristics of all car types. Over 400 charging characteristics taken into account ensure that every vehicle can be charged without worry.
- Billing: For accurate billing, a meter calibrated to MID standards is installed as standard. The activation and payment system via NFC/RFID is compatible with all conventional charging cards, credit cards as well as ApplePay and AndroidPay.
- Award: The JUICE CHARGER 2 was awarded the international GOOD DESIGN AWARD by the Chicago Athenaeum.

About Juice Technology
Juice Technology AG, headquartered in Cham (Zug, Switzerland), is a global manufacturer of charging solutions for electric vehicles. The company's extensive product portfolio of AC and DC charging stations, from light mobile devices to large fast chargers, makes it one of the very few full-range suppliers in the industry. Juice has dominated the global market for mobile 22 kW charging stations since 2014.
The decisive difference to other solutions available on the market is the consistent software orientation. All devices marked with "J+" are based on the same processor and the same firmware, which means they are compatible with each other. By using a single, consistent software architecture, Juice saves a lot of time, effort and money. Solutions such as omnidynamic load management, credit card payment or the interface-open backend are therefore available for the entire product range.
The Juice Group has a global presence with its own locations, subsidiaries and partner companies. Juice Services AG and the German Juice Europe GmbH with a branch in Munich are part of the group. It also has a global network of resellers. A total of over 150 people currently work in the areas of research and development, production, marketing, administration, purchasing and sales, and logistics. The company is currently tripling its turnover every year.
