WHAT WE DO - AND WHY

FEV Consulting is the FEV Group's technology-driven top management consultancy. We act as a guide between strategy development and product realization in today's global environment. We do not simply work for companies, but for our customers - people who want to move society forward. That's why we develop and optimize technical product concepts with our focus on customer benefit, feasibility, sustainability and profitability. 

Work together with us on challenging projects from different areas of the mobility, transportation and energy sectors.
Sample topics include: sustainable vehicle and mobility concepts, business transformations to maintain future viability, coupling the energy and transportation sectors, digital services, and business development for innovation.

YOUR ROLE

With the growing number of electric vehicles (EVs) on our roads, the question of how to maximize their value beyond transportation is becoming increasingly important. One major opportunity lies in the use of EV batteries to support the energy system through applications like energy arbitrage or grid stabilization. Building on our experience in energy systems and e-mobility, this thesis explores how Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technologies can unlock new value streams for different stakeholders such as EV users, grid operators, and energy providers. Based on real electricity price trends and market mechanisms, you will develop and apply a quantitative model to assess the financial potential of selected use cases. The work combines analytical modeling with strategic considerations and contributes to shaping viable and scalable V2X strategies for tomorrow’s energy ecosystem.
