German auto components producer MAHLE is more and more turning into an e-mobility provider. The corporate says its electrical AC compressor is especially sought-after because of its peak energy of 18 kW, which makes it probably the most highly effective e-compressor in the marketplace in the meanwhile.

The corporate says it has already secured quite a few sequence orders within the passenger and business car sectors, amounting to roughly 1.4 billion euros.

E-compressors are one of many key parts in EV thermal administration. They regulate the temperature of the electrical drivetrain, and are thus essential for the service life, charging pace and cruising vary of the battery. 

Along with e-compressors for e-mobility, MAHLE develops and produces electrical actuators, auxiliary parts, engine equipment, auxiliary aggregates, electronics and software program, and whole thermal administration techniques. In keeping with the corporate, between 2022 and 2026, greater than 20 electrified car platforms from main passenger and business car producers will likely be launched in the marketplace that depend on its expertise and merchandise. MAHLE says it already generates over 60% of its gross sales independently of ICE automobiles, a share that it hopes to extend to 75% by 2030.

“MAHLE will proceed to increase its position as a whole system provider for air con in EVs,” stated Arnd Franz, CEO of the MAHLE Group.
