Charging at home use cases
Single-family homes
Connecting a home charging station to an EV charging management platform offers a range of benefits for your customers – the EV driver:
- Dynamic load management: Protect the local and home grid from overloading with AMPECO’s smart load management algorithms.
- Smart scheduling: Integrate with electricity providers to offer scheduled charging during off-peak times and help drivers save money from flexible tariffs.
- Remote management and access: Monitor the charging process from start to finish, gain insight on usage, and access the charger if located outside.
Apartment Buildings and Residential Complexes
Charging management platforms make it easy to track and bill tenants all through the convenience of an app. Property managers are free to customize their pricing models, track tenant’s usage, issue billing, and collect payments with ease. Subscription plans in AMPECO’s EV charging management platform simplify EV charging in buildings with shared parking lots. Offer drivers the ability to charge and pay a monthly service fee and the cost of charging in one monthly billing subscription.
With multiple tenants needing to charge simultaneously, grid overload can easily create significant problems for building managers. Avoid this problem entirely with smart charging, where the load is balanced to ensure that it never exceeds available capacity.
Smart charging regulations in the UK
AMPECO is compliant with the smart charging regulations that came into effect in June 2022. The new regulations mandate that all domestic and workplace chargers sold in the UK must have smart charging capabilities to minimize peak demand and protect the energy grid. Some of the new mandatory features include:
- Default off-peak scheduling: To encourage drivers to charge during times of low demand, chargers are preset to switch off during peak hours (8-11am and 4-10pm on weekdays)
- Randomized delays: A randomized delay is set on all charging sessions, including those pre-scheduled, to minimize the impact on the grid. Drivers are able to override this option when needed.
- Monitoring of energy consumption: Live and historical data must be easily accessed by the user including power consumption, session durations, and costs.
- Interoperability: Charge points must be able to send and receive communications, respond to signals by adjusting rate or time which electricity flows regardless of electricity supplier.
