Video: eCLIQ secures new charging network for electric cars from Comfort Charge

Comfort Charge is a Bonn-based Deutsche Telekom subsidiary which operates charging stations for electric vehicles throughout Germany. Parts of the existing telecommunications infrastructure are being upgraded for the establishment and expansion of this network of public charging points.

Comfort Charge GmbH relies on the established CLIQ® technology from ASSA ABLOY Sicherheitstechnik GmbH for the security of its nationwide network of quick charging stations for electric vehicles.

In the video “Comfort Charge charging network secured by eCLIQ from ASSA ABLOY”, Dipl.-Ing. (FH) Robert Miehle-Huang, Technics & ICT at Comfort Charge explains that the modern locking system for the key management special requirements of the innovative quick charging stations with many service technicians and different locations offers cutting-edge mobile management with full flexibility from any location.

Flexible and straightforward

eCLIQ, the purely electronic system of the CLIQ®family, combines very high electronic and mechanical security in one locking solution and at the same time offers high protection against tampering and intelligent attacks. The effort required for installation is minimal, installation is completely wireless and without structural changes. The power supply is provided by a standard battery in the key, which supplies the cylinder with power on contact.

As an eCLIQ system can also be fully scalable up to thousands of cylinders and can be conveniently managed anywhere, the system is ideal for the current project. Robert Miehle-Huang confirms this in the video: “We were looking for a locking system that we could put into operation easily. That’s why we chose eCLIQ, the ideal solution for us with its fast, easy parametrisation.”

Beyond that, you will learn how different access authorisations for service technicians at the respective charging stations can be easily and conveniently defined with eCLIQ by assigning corresponding access rights throughout Germany.
