Problem
Current vehicle fueling infrastructure relies on manual, time‑consuming processes for both liquid/gaseous fuels and electric battery charging, creating bottlenecks, high labor costs, and grid stress. The lack of automated, fast, and universal refueling solutions limits the scalability of multi‑energy mobility and reduces convenience for drivers and operators.
Solution
AutoEnergy delivers fully autonomous robotic systems that automate the transfer of energy to vehicles, covering electric battery swapping (Power Swap) and automatic dispensing of liquid, gaseous, and hydrogen fuels (Fuelmatics). The battery‑swap unit can replace an EV’s battery in about three minutes without cords, while the fueling unit rapidly and safely delivers petrol, diesel, ethanol, CNG, LNG, hydrogen, or electricity. Both systems are designed for installation at existing service stations, enabling seamless integration into current fuel‑station layouts. By eliminating human intervention, the solutions reduce turnaround time, lower operating labor, and mitigate grid load spikes through managed energy delivery. The technology is built on advanced robotics and control algorithms that ensure precise, repeatable energy transfer while maintaining safety and environmental standards.
Target Audience
Primary customers are fuel‑station operators, retail energy providers, and fleet managers seeking fast, automated refueling solutions for mixed‑energy vehicle fleets.
