Advanced grid, billing and asset metering services for home EV charging

电动汽车是满足英国碳预算的关键方面，将成为未来能源体系中极具影响力的组成部分。国家电网预测，到2030年，英国将有1100万辆电动汽车，到2040年将有3600万辆，但如果电动汽车无人管理，它们将对配电网络造成严重破坏，并导致绿色能源的低效利用。电动汽车带来的高峰需求增加和系统稳定性也是国家层面关注的问题，然而国家电网已经规定，通过智能充电技术、消费者在非高峰时间充电和V2G技术，2040年电力峰值需求增加可能只有8GW。ev.Energy正在与Indra Renewable Technologies合作，在其现有的智能充电软件平台和智能充电器的基础上，测试提供先进电网和计费服务的可行性，并向能源公用事业和系统运营商提供服务。

EVs are critical aspect of meeting the UK's carbon budget and will become a highly influential component of the future energy system. National Grid predicts that there will be 11 million EVs in the UK by 2030 and 36 million by 2040, but if EVs are left unmanaged they will cause significant disruption to distribution networks, and inefficient use of green energy sources. Peak demand increases caused by EVs and system stability are also concerns at a national level, however National Grid has stipulated that through 'smart charging technologies, consumers charging at off-peak times and V2G technology, the increase in electricity peak demand could be as little as 8GW in 2040'.ev.energy is partnering with Indra Renewable Technologies to build upon its existing smart charging software platform and smart chargers, and test the feasibility of delivering advanced grid and billing services, and provide services back to energy utilities and system operators.
