The best smart-city ideas aren’t just visionary—they work on the street, at the kerb, in the depot, and on the balance sheet. At SCEWC Barcelona, Pilot will showcase practical EV and energy solutions that turn parking bays into high-value public assets: fast DC chargers with an integrated media screen, modular battery energy storage (BESS) that tames tariffs and grid constraints, and open software that lets municipalities and operators scale with confidence. If you’re building sustainable mobility in Europe or beyond, make Gran Via, Hall 2, Level 0, Street B, Stand 65 your first stop.

From kilowatts to ROI. Pilot’s hardware is engineered for throughput and longevity, but every feature points to one outcome—sites that perform and pay back. Dynamic power sharing moves more vehicles per hour; accurate metering and tariff scheduling control costs; remote operations reduce truck rolls. Your chargers look premium because they are; your spreadsheets look better because operations are disciplined.
Open by design. We connect to the platforms cities already trust. With OCPP-compatible operation and API-friendly architecture, Pilot chargers and BESS integrate with your preferred back office for payments, analytics, loyalty, fleet access, and energy management. No vendor lock-in, no dead ends—just tools that scale from a pilot site to a citywide network.
Built for urban reality. Durable, outdoor-ready enclosures, layered electrical protections, and accessible emergency stops keep stations online in heat, cold, salt air, and heavy use. Clear on-screen guidance and status lighting reduce first-use friction for residents and visitors alike.
A modern charger that does more than deliver power. The cabinet’s high-brightness, eye-level display doubles as a digital noticeboard and revenue channel. Use it for wayfinding, safety prompts, live pricing, local promotions, or paid advertising—turning dwell time into measurable value. A luminous canopy makes the unit easy to spot; dual connectors and dynamic power allocation keep queues short during peak hours. Optional retractable cable management keeps heavy DC leads off the ground, improving accessibility and reducing wear.
Why it matters for smart cities
Elevates public space with hardware that looks premium, day or night.
Communicates clearly—critical for tourists and multi-language districts.
Creates a new digital surface for community messages and commercial media.
Improves utilization, so fewer bays serve more drivers.
Grid capacity and tariff volatility are the hidden barriers to EV scale-up. Pilot’s BESS solves both. The system charges off-peak or from solar canopies, then discharges during evening peaks to support fast charging and cut demand charges. In constrained zones, BESS buffers transformer limits so cities can deploy high-power charging without waiting years for reinforcement. Remote monitoring and OTA updates keep operating costs low; modular power simplifies service.
City benefits
Faster, cheaper rollouts in growth corridors and historic districts.
Smoother grid impact near transit hubs and dense housing.
Cleaner, more local energy when paired with PV.
Resilience for special events and outage ride-through.
Wall-mount and pedestal options complete the portfolio for workplaces, park-and-ride hubs, cultural venues, and residential blocks. All run on the same open platform as our DC units, making procurement and operations straightforward.
Drivers see what to do at a glance: clearly signed bays, status lighting, big on-screen prompts, and familiar authentication (RFID, app, QR, or card via supported gateways). The result is shorter learning curves, fewer support calls, and better reviews.
Fleets and city services get predictable turnarounds with high-power sessions and access rules tailored to shift schedules. With OCPP connections, dispatchers manage pricing, reservations, and health checks from a single pane of glass.
Local businesses benefit from increased footfall and the media screen—a simple way to promote dining, cultural events, or city campaigns to an attentive audience.
Visit our stand for a quick, data-driven planning session. Bring a sketch of your district, existing tariff information, and target utilization. In 30 minutes we will:
Recommend power levels, dispenser counts, and connector sets for each location.
Model demand-charge savings and payback using BESS and time-of-use schedules.
Outline a phased deployment plan—start with the highest-impact sites, then scale as adoption grows.
Show how on-screen messaging and advertising can offset OPEX while improving public communications.
Smart cities don’t just reduce emissions; they also reduce friction. Pilot’s approach—fast charging plus grid-smart storage—removes the practical obstacles that keep EV adoption from accelerating. With BESS, cities can align charging with renewable generation, avoid costly grid peaks, and keep neighborhoods quiet and clean. With media-ready chargers, they can inform residents in real time and support local commerce. It’s a rare case where what’s best for the environment is also best for operations and budgets.
