A smart charging service is an important tool for businesses and property owners who want to keep their electricity costs down while providing EV charging.
By 2027 at the latest, all Swedish electricity network companies must have introduced power-based pricing, which means charging based on power consumption. The model is already being applied among the electricity network companies or is being planned in full for introduction. Power-based pricing is intended to motivate people to spread out their electricity use. This means avoiding power peaks, which promotes efficient network utilization.
EV charging and power-based pricing can therefore cause problems if you don’t think about it from the start. With ChargeNode’s smart charging and payment service, it is possible to flatten the power curve and thereby avoid expensive power charges. Users enter their departure time in the company’s app and then the charging and payment service prioritizes the order in which the cars are charged.
– “Our charging system has the function of load balancing combined with a smart charging service so that members’ cars are charged based on parking time. So it’s the combination of load balancing and smart charging service that enables the facility owner to keep their electricity consumption down and thereby avoid expensive power charges,” says Richard Forssell of ChargeNode.
Another advantage is that ChargeNode’s charging system with its centralized charging control has significantly fewer components than traditional solutions. This means efficient and inexpensive management after the end of the warranty period.
– We recommend that companies and property owners think through how the charging infrastructure will be managed over time,” says Richard Forssell.
