Back to original languageAbout Patrik
Freelance expert for electromobility with a focus on charging infrastructure
Brief Profile:
I support companies as an external expert in e-mobility, project manager, and technology consultant. Whether for short-term resource supplementation, specialized technical topics, or complete project phases. I bring many years of experience in hardware and software integration, standardization, and technical project management. My approach: get started quickly, implement efficiently, deliver measurable results.
Fields of Application for Companies in the E-Mobility Industry:
Project management & control in the area of charging infrastructure and electromobility
Technology scouting & feasibility analyses
System integration (backend, frontend, hardware, software)
Standard implementation: ISO 15118-2/-20, OCPP 2.0.1, calibration law
Interoperability tests & conformity checks
Sector coupling with PV, wind power, storage systems
Special support for the logistics industry:
Many logistics and fleet companies know they need to transition their vehicle fleet to electromobility, but often lack the time in their daily operations to deal with the complex requirements of the electric transformation. I take over the entire technical and organizational planning: from needs and site analysis to charging infrastructure selection, integration of load management, funding advice, and coordination with grid operators. This allows your core business to remain undisturbed while the transition is professionally implemented.
Industries & Clients:
Energy suppliers & grid operators
OEMs & vehicle suppliers
Charging infrastructure manufacturers & backend providers
Logistics & fleet companies
Added Value for Your Projects:
* Quick familiarization with existing structures
- Direct takeover of sub-projects or technical responsibility
- Manufacturer- and technology-independent consulting
- Implementation with a focus on costs, schedule, and quality
- Access to a network of EU & Asian partner companies
