The advantages of a standalone charging station versus the capacity of two-sided stations – expert analysis by TiD Engineering
When talking about charging electrical vehicles, we still can’t pinpoint a “universally correct” solution – however, we can say that there’s a right solution based on a concrete location. And in many cases, it is the difference between a standalone and a double-sided charging station that is the basis for the success of a business model, whether it is a hotel, shopping center, or logistics park. Leading company T&D Engineering, as a producer and system integrator of electrical charging stations, focuses on a personalized approach when setting up such systems. "Our role is to tell the investor both what he is buying today and how he will maintain it tomorrow. The distinction between a single and a double post is the first step towards building a functional and reliable charging point," T&D Engineering informed BalkanEngineer.com.

Weber Etiketten optimizes automated logistics with ECO series of direct thermal labels with permanent adhesive
The development of modern logistical lines often encounters one unexpected challenge – the physical capability of the label to contain a clear print. In non-top-coated direct thermal printing, the porosity of the paper becomes a major source of issues as it allows heat to dissipate laterally and blur the boundaries of the barcode. As part of the international entity Bluhm Weber Group, Weber Etiketten Bulgaria offers solutions regarding this problem with the series of thermal direct ECO labels with permanent adhesive, relying on increased surface density of the material. By reducing so-called lateral diffusion (lateral heat dissipation), the materials ensures clarity of the symbols even during speeds of 250 mm/s, which is the basis for hassle free work of the automated scanners. "In automated marking systems, the label is a supporting component of the information chain. Any inaccuracy in the microstructure of the paper can lead to defects in the barcode, which industrial scanners cannot ignore, especially at high work rates," Weber Etiketten commented to BalkanEngineer.com.

Green energy in 2026 and what the solar industry can expect – comments from Smart Solar Technologies experts – part I
After a turbulent 2025, in which the world added a record 600 GW of solar capacity, the photovoltaic sector enters its “great reconfiguration” phase in 2026. The time of chaotic growth has been replaced with disciplined strategies, and the focus changes from simply installing panels to constructing intelligent, integrated energy systems. And while Europe balanced between overflowing storage facilities and ambitious climate goals, the industry searches for a new balance in pricing and supply chains. In this context, technological advantages and regional independence turn in the new separation line between market leaders and market followers. In a dialogue between engineers from Smart Solar Technologies, part of the Smart Energy Group, we discussed the most important topics in the renewable energy industry for 2026.

T&D Engineering: The "Right to Repair" Directive is a matter of engineering ethics that we have been working with for years
Almost 2 years ago, Europe officially put an end to the era of single use electronics with the Right to Repair directive. While it was aimed primarily at small electronic items, this regulation dictates the rules also with the infrastructure of electric automobiles, where reliability is paramount. The problem with a lot of charging stations is their “capsule” design, which makes changing separate defective components rather difficult. To answer this, local production in Bulgaria by T&D Engineering bets on industrial mobility, where every part is accessible for service.
