3. Managing Energy and Smoothing the Load Curve (Smart Charging)
Without a management system, the simultaneous connection of vehicles when employees arrive at 8:30 a.m. causes a critical power spike. This spike can exceed the contracted power capacity, triggering a site-wide circuit breaker trip or major financial penalties from the grid operator. Smart charging is the technological solution to this challenge.
3.1 Control Levels: From Local Smoothing to the Smart Grid
Energy management is organized into three levels of increasing intelligence.
Static control (power limitation): This involves a fixed configuration that limits the maximum power delivered by each charging station (for example, programming a 22 kW station so that it never delivers more than 11 kW, regardless of the state of the grid or the building). It is a basic but inflexible...
