SolarEdge, a global leader in smart energy technology, today launched a solar-powered EV charging solution for businesses at Intersolar 2025. Available now, the new solution includes a new EV charger for businesses, powered and controlled by an energy management system introduced following the acquisition of Wevo Energy last year. The new EV charging solution joins the SolarEdge C&I ecosystem for commercial-scale solar and storage solutions. Businesses with SolarEdge’s solar systems can now charge their EV fleet with ‘power-optimized’ solar energy to further reduce their energy bills—with one of the first beta customers reporting a reduction in EV charging costs of approximately 70%.
Christoph Vogl, CEO of BV-comOffice GmbH, a leading German office retailer and one of the first customers to deploy the new SolarEdge EV charging solution, commented: “Since installing SolarEdge’s PV and EV charging solution, we have managed to cut our EV fleet charging costs by around 70%—a substantial saving on our energy bill. I’ve also been impressed by how adaptable the system is—it allows us to prioritise different vehicles, so we can ensure our sales reps are always road-ready, while other employees can have their cars charged by the end of the day. Our employees are also really pleased to be charging their cars with clean energy—it’s been a hit across the board.”
The SolarEdge ONE EV Charger
Designed to maximize solar self-consumption and use of excess solar, the SolarEdge ONE EV Charger is now available for commercial applications and is expected to be available for residential applications in Q3, 2025.
Featuring a new sleek, compact design, it will be suitable for both single-phase and three-phase modes with automatic switching built-in, and is designed for fast, simple installation in just a few minutes. The EV charger is also supported by ‘Olivia’, a newly released AI phone support agent purpose-built for EV charging. ‘Olivia’ provides 24/7 assistance to drivers, while also helping fleet operators to significantly reduce support costs, enhance service reliability, and boost operational efficiency.

Solar, Storage and EV charging for optimized economics
The EV charging solution combines customer-specific EV charging schedules and solar generation patterns with real-time grid electricity prices to autonomously calculate the most economical energy source to charge EV fleets—whether that’s with solar, battery or grid. It also enables ‘tiered charging modes’, allowing priority users—such as sales reps who need their car throughout the day—to access grid power if needed, while other non-priority vehicles are set to charge only when solar is available. By dynamically boosting or throttling EV charging based on real-time energy loads, the new solution is also designed to allow scaling up to 20x more chargers on existing infrastructure, while ensuring the building’s energy load is not exceeded.
Teddy Flatau, CEO & Co-Founder of Wevo Energy, part of SolarEdge, said: "Integrating intelligent energy management into the SolarEdge ecosystem will allow businesses to unlock the full potential of solar-powered EV charging. As early results clearly demonstrate, this solution doesn’t just lower charging costs—it makes EV infrastructure smarter, more scalable, and more sustainable. It's a clear example of how software-driven optimization can accelerate the transition to clean transportation at scale."
Shuki Nir, SolarEdge CEO, commented: “We’ve seen strong momentum in our C&I PV portfolio over the past year. With the addition of our commercial storage battery, large scale 330kW inverter, and advanced energy management software, our offering is becoming an increasingly comprehensive and integrated energy ecosystem. The efficient integration of solar energy and public EV infrastructure is an important building block for more cost-effective and sustainable EV charging - after all, an EV fleet is only as clean as the energy that powers it.”
Visitors to Intersolar 2025 can find more information on the new solar-powered EV Charging solution on the SolarEdge booth (Hall B4, Stand 110).
