Electric Vehicle (EV) charging management
Electrification of the mobility sector
The growth of electric vehicles is transforming the automotive sector, but it also raises the question of how the electric vehicle can be used in the future. new challenges in the electricity sector. Electric mobility does not depend only on the vehicle or the charger, but also on the electrical infrastructure that powers it, from the switchboard to the recharging point.
The electrification of transport is driving the installation of recharging points in public and private car parks, industry, corporate fleets, and at petrol stations. In this context, the efficient energy management, The availability of capacity and reliable metering become critical factors to ensure a sustainable and scalable deployment.
The challenge:
reloading without compromising the installation
The incorporation of EV charging points introduces new complexities in electrical installations:
- Significant increase in power demand.
- Need to manage several recharging points simultaneously.
- Limitations on contracted or available power.
- Equitable distribution of energy between users and vehicles.
- Certified metering requirements for billing and consumption control.
Without an adequate strategy, electric vehicle charging can generate overloads, tripping of protections or unnecessary investments in power upgrading.
Intelligent management for efficient recharging
The solution is to integrate EV charging into the electrical architecture of the installation itself. This implies accurately measure, dynamically manage power and monitor the entire system.
Intelligent recharge management makes it possible:
- Adjust the power allocated to each point according to actual availability.
- Avoid overloads and optimise the contracted power.
- Integrate recharging with other consumption of the installation.
- Facilitate scalability as the number of vehicles increases.
In this scenario, electrification becomes an opportunity to improve the overall efficiency of the installation.
SACI technology applied to EV recharging
SACI provides specific solutions to address electric vehicle charging from the electrical point of view, combining certified measurement, dynamic power management and centralised control.
Certified measurement in recharge switchboards: MID SACI meters
Metering is a key element in any charging infrastructure. The SACI MID counters allow for a accurate and certified energy measurement, This is an indispensable requirement in applications where it is necessary to apportion costs, invoice consumption or comply with regulations.
Integrated into the electrical recharging panel, these meters measure active energy imported and exported, as well as other relevant electrical parameters, providing a reliable basis for the control and management of consumption associated with the electric vehicle.
Find out how to integrate MID certified measurement into your EV charging panels.
Dynamic power management for multiple recharging points
When the number of recharging points increases, manual management is no longer viable. The solutions of SACI's intelligent recharge management allow the available power to be managed dynamically, adapting it in real time to the demand of the vehicles and the constraints of the installation.
These systems make it possible to manage installations with multiple recharging points, The management is carried out locally within the client's network, guaranteeing reliability and continuity of service, with the possibility of integration with higher-level systems for monitoring and management of users. Management is carried out locally within the customer's network, guaranteeing reliability and continuity of service, with the possibility of integration with superior systems for monitoring and user management.
