Would you choose to repair electronic device components rather than replacing the entire unit?
Autocraft Solutions Group has been awarded the inaugural Green Award at the Automechanika Frankfurt Innovation Awards. The company was recognized for its specialized repair services that extend the life of electric vehicle batteries.
Why it matters
By repairing batteries at the cell or module level rather than replacing entire units, the company significantly reduces waste and carbon emissions. This approach addresses the growing need for sustainable maintenance as the number of electric vehicles on the road increases.
Autocraft repairs between 300 and 400 battery packs monthly, restoring them to over 90% of original performance. The firm beat out 185 entries to secure the newly established Green Award.
The players
Autocraft Solutions Group
An automotive service provider that operates specialized workshops for electric vehicle battery maintenance.
Automechanika Frankfurt Innovation Awards
An international event recognizing cutting-edge technological advancements in the automotive industry.
The details
Using the proprietary OptEVizer platform, technicians stress test batteries to pinpoint faults at the individual cell level. This digital twin technology allows them to isolate and replace only failed components, which saves 12 metric tons of CO2 per 82.5 kWh pack.
Timeline
Autocraft received the Green Award in 2026.
Roadmap
The adoption of the OptEVizer diagnostic platform signals a major shift in the automotive industry toward circular economy models for EV power systems. This move challenges the legacy practice of total pack replacement and positions specialized repair firms as essential partners for global OEMs.
Vehicle owners may see increased longevity for their battery packs as repair options become more widely available through OEM networks. These specialized services provide a sustainable alternative that can maintain performance standards without the cost of a full battery replacement.
The takeaway
Repairing individual battery components is an increasingly effective way to minimize the environmental impact of electric vehicle ownership. Owners should look for certified repair centers that utilize diagnostic platforms to ensure their vehicle batteries are serviced safely and effectively.
