Top 20 Smart EV Charging Solutions
Smart charging facilitates and secures charging while also serving as a platform for smart energy services. It also helps to save money while lowering carbon footprint.
FASTER CHARGE
Smart charging devices allow for the safe utilization of maximum charging power. When compared to typical power sockets, this allows for far quicker charging.
SAFER CHARGE
Smart charging is much safer than traditional charging since smart devices immediately test the connection between the automobile and the device before beginning the charging process. If there are several charging outlets on the same premises, dynamic load management can improve safety. Charging events can be halted remotely if necessary.
STAY ON TOP OF ELECTRICITY CONSUMPTION
Neighborly disagreements about higher power use can be resolved by connecting the charging device to a charging provider that collects consumption statistics automatically. Charging charges are charged directly to the EV owner in this manner. To assist customers with business automobiles, the service may automatically report the charges of both public and home charging to the employer.
IMPROVE CHARGING TIME
Timing may be adjusted using smart charging based on the pricing at the local power market. This saves money while simultaneously benefiting the environment and the electrical system, as electricity costs follow demand. EV charging balances the supply and demand for power and reduces the requirement for electricity generation through charging time optimization.
LOCATING CHARGING STATIONS
When a charging station is linked to a charging network, drivers can check if it is free or in use — and reserve it if required. Drivers may also share their home charging stations to earn additional money while assisting others.
CHARGES HAVE BEEN OPTIMIZED FOR LOWER ENERGY RATES.
More electric vehicles entail increased charging stations, which means more energy consumption. Using a smart charge station to power electric car can assist minimize peak-time energy use and will help a property's infrastructure cope with the increased demand from charging an electric vehicle.
USES CLEANER, GREENER ENERGY TO HELP LESSEN ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT.
Smart charge stations will not only assist limit energy use to save money, but it will also benefit the environment. Off-peak charging performance optimization reduces the impact of energy demands on the National Grid, saving householders a cent or two while also helping to decrease environmental footprints.
DATA-REPORTING AUTOMATION FOR CHARGING AND PERFORMANCE
The ability of a smart charger to connect to the internet and be accessed remotely and from an external operator is one of its most important features. Whereas non-smart EV chargers can just serve as a power source for a car, a smart charger can give real-time diagnostic information to the user, monitor its own performance, and autonomously change itself in reaction to energy network signals and factors.
A SMARTPHONE APP MAY BE USED TO CONTROL THE CHARGE STATION.
The majority of smart charge stations will be linked with a smartphone app that will allow the user to see these reports and receive notifications of any software changes.
OTA UPDATES THAT ARE AUTOMATED
Smart charging stations may link to their operator remotely to get 'Over the Air' updates. This implies that if the charge point maker or operator makes modifications to the charge point software, the updates will be received automatically and will not require the owner's personal input.
EASILY LOCATE SMART CHARGING STATIONS THAT ARE NETWORK-CONNECTED.
Smart charge points can link to a network of nearby charge points, allowing drivers to know if a charge station is in use or available for use. This is useful for drivers who are planning their travel or seeking for a suitable charging station while driving their vehicle on the road.
BALANCE PEAK POWER DEMAND FOR COMPANIES
Charging an electric car at a business facility has the same challenges as charging the vehicle at home. That instance, if all charge ports are utilized at the same time by a company's employees, the building's energy infrastructure may be overloaded.
CHARGE ELECTRIC VEHICLES WITH MORE EASE.
As electric cars become the next big thing, manufacturers are working hard to guarantee that their products provide optimum utility and convenience to homes. After all, broad adoption of electric and low-emission hybrid vehicles will result in a shift in habit for everyone who uses a car. Manufacturers have prioritized making charge stations that are not only practical and easy to use, but also dependable and convenient, in addition to ensuring that the technology is available to allow such a transformation.
GRANT MONEY FOR SMART CHARGING STATION
The Office for Low Emission Vehicles (OLEV) has the authority to modify the conditions for their Electric Car Home Charge Scheme so that applicants are only eligible for funding if the charge point, they have installed for their electric vehicle is equipped with smart technology.
EV CHARGING STATION CONNECTIVITY
While the features of smart chargers vary significantly, they all have one thing in common: the ability to create a wireless connection between a car and a station. This is facilitated through the charging station's software, which is usually supplemented with an internet connection that allows the user to operate the charger remotely via a mobile app.
MAINTAIN A HEALTHY ENERGY FLOW.
Charging an EV places a significant strain on home's electrical system. It might overload the circuit and cause breakers to trip if not maintained properly.
MAKE THE MOST OF EV BATTERY CAPACITY.
While EV's battery is presently only a location to store electricity for driving, it might one day be a source of power for grid by feeding electricity back into it. Vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology refers to bidirectional power transfers between an EV and an electrical circuit.
IMPROVE THE USE OF RENEWABLE ENERGY.
A significant concern among EV users who also create their own energy, such as through solar panels or wind turbines, is whether that energy can be used to charge their vehicles. Smart charging allows to easily select where the energy needed to charge automobile originates from, which can help maximize the usage of locally generated energy.
REDUCE POWER EXPENDITURES.
While installing a smart charger requires an initial expenditure, there are various features that can result in considerable cost savings throughout the charger's lifetime. A smart charger helps to monitor electricity use and charge during times when to save money on electricity bill by offering insights into the charging process and energy use.
