Power Assets: The equipment layer for your electrified business
Energy Services: From Installation to Performance
Solar and storage generate cleaner power. Power assets determine how well your business actually uses it.
Electrification is no longer a future commitment. Fleets are going electric, heating systems are shifting away from gas, and continuity of supply matters more than ever. Each of these changes will place new demands on your site’s infrastructure.
That’s where power assets come in. EV charging, heat pumps, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC), along with backup power, form the equipment layer that lets your business electrify with confidence, without overloading your connection or your budget.
EV charging infrastructure: more than just a charging point
A visible charging point is only the final piece of a much larger system. Behind it sits the cabling, electrical protections, safety devices, and control systems that determine whether your charging infrastructure performs reliably, or becomes a liability.
Different sites need different charging speeds, depending on who is charging and for how long:
- Slow charging (≈3.7 kW) — suited to vehicles parked for extended periods, such as employee cars during the working day.
- Fast charging (7–22 kW AC) — a practical balance of performance, cost, and compatibility for most commercial sites.
- Rapid charging (≥50 kW DC) — designed for high-turnover use, such as commercial fleets or visitor parking with limited dwell time.
The intelligence behind the system matters as much as the hardware. Load balancing automatically distributes available power across charge points based on real-time demand, preventing overloads without forcing you to upgrade your electrical subscription. As your fleet grows, this is what keeps charging fast, safe, and cost-efficient without recurring capital outlay every time you add a charger.
Heat Pumps: electrified heating, engineered for efficiency
A heat pump transfers heat from outside air or the ground into your building, rather than burning fuel to generate it. For every unit of electricity consumed, it can deliver three to four units of heat among the most efficient heating technologies available today.
Two main configurations serve commercial sites:
- Air source heat pumps to extract warmth from outside air and work effectively even in cold climates, while also providing cooling in summer. They suit most commercial and residential properties and integrate with existing radiators or underfloor systems.
- Ground source heat pumps that draw stable thermal energy from buried pipework, delivering higher year-round efficiency. They suit larger sites with available land, such as new builds or estates.
For sites with existing radiator-based systems, high-temperature heat pumps reaching flow temperatures up to 80°C offer a drop-in alternative to conventional boilers. No need to replace your heat emitters. Across applications, heat pumps can cut heating energy costs by up to 60% compared to gas or oil systems, while significantly reducing emissions.
HVAC and backup power: comfort and continuity
Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems shape daily operating costs as much as occupant comfort. Right-sizing your HVAC system from the outset - based on your building’s actual thermal demand - avoids the over-specification that drives up both capital and running costs over time.
Backup power addresses a different risk entirely: continuity. Even on the most reliable grids, planned maintenance, local network constraints, and rare but high-impact faults can still interrupt supply. For continuous production or cold storage, a single hour of disruption can outweigh years of avoided downtime elsewhere.
Standby generation systems, ranging from single-phase units to large industrial installations, are designed to transfer automatically the moment power is interrupted, keeping critical operations running while the issue is resolved.
Together, these assets ensure that electrification doesn’t come at the cost of resilience.
Power assets, engineered as part of a wider energy strategy
Power assets work best when they’re designed alongside your solar, storage, and energy management systems, not bolted on afterwards. As your long-term energy partner, Wewise integrates EV charging, heat pumps, HVAC, and backup power into a single, coherent site strategy.
That means one point of contact instead of multiple contractors, local expertise across seven European markets, and a maximum of one subcontracting level to protect quality and accountability throughout. Flexible financing options also mean electrification doesn’t require a significant upfront outlay.
