EnSmartEV - Entrust Smart EV Charging System for Public Spaces

该项目旨在开发和展示一种创新的、改变游戏规则的智能公共快速充电系统——EnSmartEV。政府已经承诺减少二氧化碳的排放，但目前的公共电动汽车充电器使用峰值功率为电动汽车充电，仍然需要燃烧大量的化石燃料，所以问题被转移到其他地方——到发电方面，而不是车辆本身。我们的愿景是提供一个智能、公共、快速的电动汽车充电解决方案，以真正实现低碳/零碳运输，并鼓励购买电动汽车，特别是那些没有路边停车位的人和商业用户。EnSmartEV为CCS标准电动汽车（如宝马i3）提供快速直流和交流充电，为日产Leaf等其他具有Type 2进气口的标准电动汽车提供快速交流充电。它适用于英国/欧盟的所有电动汽车车型（包括清洁和送货车辆，即不仅仅是乘用车）。EnSmartEV集成了锂电池，旨在以最高的电力效率和最低的电网连接成本，为电动汽车充电~100%的非高峰或低电价电力或可再生电力，从而实现可再生能源与电网基础设施的高度渗透。EnSmartEV使离职后的电动汽车电池能够重复使用，延长了电动汽车电池的使用寿命。EnSmartEV系统包括一个电池容器和三个超薄/简单的充电桩。电池容器容纳了所有设备，并可以被屏蔽在远离街道/人行道的空间中。充电站在街道/人行道上的占地面积很小，是为所有使用者（包括残疾司机）而设计的，并考虑到其他道路使用者，特别是盲人和轮椅使用者。每个充电桩设计为两辆同时充电的电动汽车提供服务，并提供多种用途，例如手机充值充电，照亮街道/人行道，同时指示驾驶员充电器的状态。EnSmartEV旨在以零额外成本为电网提供支持服务（即平衡和频率支持），这远远超出了V2G（车辆到电网）和需求响应。EnSmartEV是真正的下一代智能电动汽车充电解决方案，可实现低碳运输并应对气候变化。EnSmartEV可用于所有公共场所，包括但不限于街道，社区停车中心和停车场，当有空间可供电池集装箱使用时。EnSmartEV将促进电动汽车的快速增长，刺激道路运输电气化，使电动汽车电池能够重新使用，改善空气质量，从而提高生活质量。

The project aims to develop and demonstrate an innovative and game-changing smart public fast EV charging system, EnSmartEV.The government has made commitments to reducing CO2 emissions but current public EV chargers use peak power to charge EVs and still require burning of large amounts of fossil fuels, so the problems are being moved elsewhere - to the point of power generation rather than the vehicles themselves.Our vision is to provide a smart, public, fast EV charging solution to truly enable low/zero carbon transportation and encourage purchase of EVs, particularly for those without off-street parking and business users.EnSmartEV offers fast DC and AC charging for CCS standard EVs, such as BMW i3, and fast AC charging for other standard EVs with Type 2 inlet, such as Nissan Leaf. It is designed for all EV models (including cleaning and delivery vehicles, i.e. not only passenger vehicles) in the UK/EU.EnSmartEV integrates lithium batteries and is designed to charge EVs with ~100% off-peak or low tariff power or renewable electricity at highest power efficiency and lowest grid connection costs, which enables high penetration of renewable power with the grid infrastructure.EnSmartEV enables re-use of after-service EV batteries, and which extends EV batteries life-span.EnSmartEV system includes a Battery Container and three slim/simple Charging Posts. The Battery Container houses all the equipment and can be screened to be embedded in a space away from the street/pavement. The Charging Post has very small footprint on street/pavement, is designed for all users (including disabled drivers), and considers other road users, particularly the blind and wheelchair users.Each Charging Post is designed to serve two electric vehicles charging simultaneously and provide multiple uses, such as mobile phone top-up charging, lighting the street/pavement while indicating drivers the status of the charger.EnSmartEV is designed to provide supporting services (i.e. balancing and frequency support) to the grid at zero extra cost, and which is well beyond V2G (vehicle to grid) and demand response.EnSmartEV is truly the next generation smart EV charging solution which enables low carbon transportation and addresses climate change.EnSmartEV can be used for all public locations, including but not limited to on-street, community parking hub and car parks when there are spaces available for the Battery Container.EnSmartEV will facilitate rapid growth of EVs, stimulate road transport electrification, enable re-use of after-service EV batteries, enhance air quality and hence quality of life.
