Solutions for the future

Progress and modernisation have accelerated in the last decade. The devices around us give us more experience, comfort and security. Our company is part of the progress in energy developments.

Smart solutions in installation (performance management)

We believe that the first problem is inadequate power supply. Chargers are powerful electrical devices that often require more energy to operate than the company’s core business. If it is not feasible to increase the power, the power available to the chargers should be dynamically limited. This means that a device must be built into the system that monitors the power consumption of the core activity and only allows the available power – in excess of the core activity – to be used on the charging equipment. This solution ensures that the base activity remains stable and that charging will remain continuous, but not always on the top power.

Complex solutions (charger, solar panel and storage)

Modern energy management consists of the production and consumption of energy to the point where we only need minimal – or well-planned – grid energy. The energy generated by the solar panels is either consumed immediately or stored for later use. The triple combination of charger, solar panel and energy storage provides the possibility to use it at the optimal time. With such complex solutions, the secure operation can be achieved with significant cost savings.

V2G solutions

Electric car and charger manufacturers knew from the outset that the car battery could not only provide energy for the car, but could also act as a source of energy for the electricity grid by feeding energy back into the grid. V2G (Vehicle to Grid) chargers create the opportunity to transfer energy from the car to the grid, helping to meet peak energy demand.

In the longer term, the system could even be used for trading, by using energy from a car’s battery charged at night to power the grid during peak hours via the charger. The price of electricity is different in that two periods (charging and energy sales), which could be the basis for business operations.

The evolution of charging equipment.

Since the early 2010s, charging of electric cars has come a long way. Market expectations are constantly increasing, the performance required has multiplied over the years. Customers expect high availability continuously. To this end, the demand for storage integrated with charging equipment has increased significantly. In busy locations where there is also a demand for information services to customers, it is possible to install chargers integrated with the information interface. In fleet operations, the installation of intercommunicating chargers capable of controlling each other’s load is commonplace.
