BMW - How electric mobility and renewable energies are growing together by intelligent charging

BMW i is expanding its engagement in electric mobility with the new BMW Digital Charging Service (DCS). The intelligent service for predictive, convenient, cost-effective and green power-optimised charging is connecting vehicles with the world of energy. Thus BMW i is the first automobile manufacturer to offer its customers a system that intelligently incorporates charging into everyday life and at the same time helps to considerably reduce charging costs. The Digital Charging Service optimises charging technology for BMW i and BMW iPerformance vehicles and will be extended in a later phase to other brands. Pilot markets for the new service are Germany and the Netherlands in early 2017, subsequently more countries will follow.
