Optimising Electric Vehicle charging using sensors and geospatial data

公共描述关于公共电动汽车充电点的可用性和状态的可靠实时信息对于平稳过渡到零排放驾驶至关重要，而优化现有充电点的使用对于改善商业运营商的商业案例和减轻纳税人的成本负担至关重要。该项目将首次在英国使用来自连接传感器的地理空间数据和来自电动汽车充电点的实时动态数据，以提供有关管理停车位内电动汽车充电点可用性的实时动态信息。英国领先的互联传感器公司Comms365及其分包商、非营利性电动汽车专家Cenex将应挑战赛主办者德比郡议会的要求交付该项目。由实时数据分析得出的信息将被郡议会用于更有效地执行停车法规，从而防止充电点被非充电车辆阻塞，并通过在线地图和可变消息屏幕提供充电点可用性的实时信息。如果成功，第二阶段将与充电点运营商合作开发充电点预订系统。

Public descriptionReliable real time information on the availability and status of public electric vehicle chargepoints is essential to for the smooth transition to zero emission driving, while optimising the use of existing chargepoints is critical in order to improve the business case for commercial operators and to reduce the cost burden on the tax-payer. This project, for the first time in the UK, will use geospatial data from connected sensors and live dynamic data from electric vehicle chargepoints to provide live, dynamic information on the availability of electric vehicle chargepoints in managed parking spaces.Comms365, one of the UKs leading connected sensor companies, and their sub-contractor, not-for-profit electric vehicle experts, Cenex, will deliver this project at the request of challenge holder Derbyshire County Council.Information resulting from the real time data analysis will be used by the County Council to more efficiently enforce parking regulations thus preventing chargepoints being blocked by non-charging vehicles and to provide real time information on chargepoint availability via online maps and variable messaging screens. If successful, a chargepoint booking system will also be developed with the chargepoint operator in Phase 2.
