Danfoss and SMA subsidiary coneva GmbH add green energy to your supermarket's daily offerWednesday, February 21, 2018Usually your local grocer’s main mission is to supply you with fresh and healthy products. But soon, supermarkets will save the day and enable the energy transition by adding green energy to the offer. Supermarkets will allow us to integrate more renewable energy into the energy grid and you can of course charge your electric car while you shop. Danfoss A/S and SMA Solar Technology AG (SMA) will demonstrate this in a pilot project in an aktiv & irma supermarket in Oldenburg.
