02

Dynamic load balancing saves big costs

Many BRFs have limited electrical capacity. Without smart steering, already 3-4 cars can overload the main fuse, which requires a costly increase in capacity (SEK 50,000-200,000). ChargeNodes advanced load balancing Automatically distributes available power between charging points and the property's other consumption - so you can offer more charging points without expensive network investment.

Maximize the property's existing power space

For property owners, installing electric car charging often means concerns too high power tariffs and risk of overloading the main fuse.

In an uncontrolled scenario, renters connect their cars directly upon returning home, which coincides with the property's other “dinner peaks” such as ventilation, lighting and household electricity. The consequence will be sharp power peaks that drive up the network charges and create the risk of hitting the ceiling of the subscription or the main fuse. ChargeNode's technology eliminates these risks by intelligently load balancing.

Our system flattens the curve by scheduling the charge until after 8pm when the property's base load drops. In this way, the heavy charging load is shifted away from the high-cost hours and consumption becomes smooth and predictable overnight.

The result is that you can make maximum use of the available space in existing cables without having to upgrade the service. It provides lower costs, safer operations and a smarter solution for the mobility of the future.

Requirements of the Planning and Construction Act from 2027

BRFs with over 20 parking spaces must from 2027 have at least one charging pole. New residential buildings with over 10 parking spaces must have wiring infrastructure to all locations. ChargeNode helps you meet these requirements in a cost-effective way.

! 02

AFIR Compliance

AFIR Regulation Imposes requirements for payment solutions and price transparency. ChargeNode meets the requirements by:

• Ad-hoc payment without prior agreement
• Clear price information before charging starts
• Support for card payment and digital payment solutions

! 03

Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) preparation

V2G means electric cars can return energy to the grid and act as decentralized energy storage. This creates opportunities for BRFs to participate in the flexibility market and create new revenue streams. ChargeNode prepares you for these developments.

The Blog

How much can a condominium association save with smart electric car charging?

A condominium association with 15 electric cars could potentially Save over 70 000 SEK per year by implementing smart charging and load balancing. This means distributing the charge over time and with lower power, especially during nighttime hours when the power charge is often lower.

What does OCPP mean?

OCPP stands for Open Charge Point Protocol. It is a standardized open application protocol that allows charging stations and charging station networks from different providers to communicate with each other.

Can we have different prices for accommodation and guests?

Yes, in the Chargenode portal you can create different price groups. For example, you can let members charge at cost, while guests pay a higher public price.

Can I make money installing ChargeNode in my BRF?

Yes, as the plant owner, you set the price of the charge yourself. You can set a price that covers the cost of electricity, operation and also gives a surplus to the association.

Does ChargeNode work in garages with poor mobile coverage?

Yes, our systems are built to withstand harsh environments. Many facilities have local area networks, and with RFID tag, you don't depend on the cellular network to start charging.

How much does ChargeNode lower the power peaks in the property?

Spring smart load balancing can significantly reduce power peaks by distributing the charge over time, which often saves the property owner expensive network tariffs without negatively affecting residents' charging needs.

How does the queuing system and departure time work?

If many people want to charge at the same time, our system distributes the effect smartly. By entering your departure time in the app, the system prioritizes your car to get the charge it needs before you leave.
