MOON POWER Germany electrifies the car dealerships of the Seitz Group

MOON POWER Germany and the Seitz Group have been working closely together since 2022: With photovoltaic systems, energy management systems and charging infrastructure, car dealerships are becoming fit for the mobility of tomorrow. The result: higher self-sufficiency, falling energy costs and sustainable energy supply for the traditional Allgäu car dealer.

MOON POWER Germany electrified 19 locations of the traditional Seitz car dealership group with photovoltaic systems, charging infrastructure, storage systems and energy management systems. The Seitz car dealership in Memmingen, with its 199.65 kWp PV power, fast chargers, and storage systems, is an example of how car dealerships can be set up in an energy-efficient and future-proof manner. The Seitz Group, with 29 branches and over 1,250 employees, is one of the largest car dealership groups in southern Germany and has been actively promoting mobility for almost 100 years – today with a clear focus on electric mobility.

Sustainable energy for the car trade

Car dealerships are facing new challenges due to the transition to electric mobility: increasing charging demand, higher electricity costs and the need for efficient energy infrastructure. With MOON POWER Germany, the Seitz Group is focusing on integrated solutions that intelligently network photovoltaics, storage and charging infrastructure. The aim is to make maximum use of the self-generated solar power – for falling energy costs, reduced CO₂ emissions and a future-proof supply of car dealerships.

Example project Memmingen

The future of the car trade is evident at the Memmingen location:

  • 726 PV modules with around 1,200 m² module area
  • Total output 199.65 kWp
  • A 150 kW DC fast charger
  • Two battery storage systems, each with a capacity of 75 kWh

MOON POWER was responsible for everything from planning to installation and commissioning and now ensures efficient operation. In 2024 alone, the plant generated 166,373 kWh of electricity, of which 30,870 kWh was used for electromobility and 25,706 kWh was fed into the grid.

Efficiency through energy management

A decisive factor for success is MOON POWER's energy management system . It maximizes the use of self-generated electricity, avoids load peaks and ensures solar-optimized charging. In the event of an emergency, part of the car dealership can even continue to be supplied with electricity.

In combination with the B-MoRe backend system, the Seitz Group has full control at all times:

  • Real-time data on electricity generation, consumption and storage
  • Location reports with key figures on charging infrastructure, return on sales, PV production and cost savings
  • Remote diagnosis and resolution of faults for minimal downtime

This way, all 19 locations are not only operated efficiently, but also digitally monitored and controlled transparently – a clear competitive advantage in the car trade.

In Germany, car dealerships are among our main customers. With our solutions, we support them in the transition to an efficient charging infrastructure and sustainable energy supply.

Kilian Becker - Commercial Director MOON POWER Germany

Mobility is undergoing an electric transformation and as a company in the automotive industry, we would like to accompany it. That is why we attach great importance to ensuring that our sites work as efficiently as possible and are future-proof. This means that upgrading our car dealerships with photovoltaic systems, energy storage systems and charging stations is a matter of course for us.
