The German company, ADS-TEC Energy, announced that they have joined the Alabama Transportation Institute’s Alabama Mobility and Power (AMP) Center, where they work alongside the University of Alabama, Alabama Power Company, Mercedes-Benz U.S. International, and other industry, government, and academic partners to advance next-gen charging. The AMP Center supports research and workforce development to strengthen Alabama’s position in the evolving transportation and energy landscape.
ADS-TEC Energy’s U.S. headquarters for its battery-based, ultra-fast EV charging systems is in Auburn, Alabama. The company expects to expand its presence there in 2025 to meet the increased demand in the U.S., as well as support for new and existing installations. Through its new collaboration with the AMP Center, ADS-TEC Energy will leverage the facility for product testing and validation, while working with other consortium members to drive EV adoption and advanced charging techniques across Alabama and the entire United States.
“It’s an honor to join the consortium and collaborate with like-minded organizations in building technologies for a more sustainable future,” said Jason Powers, vice president, North America, ADS-TEC Energy. “Alabama is a major player in creating modern mobility and power technologies, developing charging infrastructure and managing power delivery to support large-scale growth in electric vehicles, and the AMP Center is the central hub for much of this innovation. We look forward to contributing our expertise in storage systems and advanced charging technologies as well as collaborating with other members.”
