Energy-efficient battery charging for supermarket’s new DC

It deployed Selectiva devices with its energy-efficient and gentle Ri charging process, and the intelligent Cool Battery Guide Easy management system, which Alì uses to optimise the utilisation of its battery pool.

The battery charging room is equipped with a total of 44 Selectiva chargers with power ratings of 2kW and 8kW. With the Ri charging process developed by Fronius, these are particularly frugal in their power consumption and are gentle on the batteries. 

The Cool Battery Guide Easy system improves the utilisation of the battery pool significantly. A control unit processes the data from the individual chargers and uses a blue LED strip on the device to show which battery has been fully charged the longest and is therefore the coolest, intuitively guiding employees to the right battery.
