ePowerControl EV

EV charging controller

Control and supervision of EV charging stations
including battery storage systems.

Why choose ePowerControl EV?

Smart control strategy

Control the charging speed of the terminal depending on the state of charge of the batteries, PV production, and building load in order to either:

Maximize PV penetration

Optimize PV penetration by adjusting EV charging speed according to solar production. Inc. Smart Charging: If solar production surpasses load consumption, EV charging speed will be increased to use the excess of solar production

Optimize EV charging

Make the most of the EV chargers’ maximum power output, whether it’s fed from the grid, BESS or from the solar:
Inc. Load Balancing: If load consumption surpassed the maximum power purchase from the grid, EV charging speed will be reduced in order to always be under a determined power purchase
Inc. Peak shaving: import limitation from the grid in grid-tied configuration thanks to BESS and charging station

How does our EV charging controller work?

Ensure control with integrated features

In case of overproduction, PV production can be stored into on-site BESS or speed up charging time before being curtailed to ensure efficient limitation injection

From the grid in grid-tied configuration thanks to BESS and charging station
The battery will start charging during the night from the grid (and no discharge is allowed) to a certain pre-defined SoC and discharging during the day upon the needs
Time of use, peak shaving or SoC target settings can be set up and differ on business days vs. weekends

Define EV station logic of charge either equal or with specific selection or priorisation according to your applications

Define EV station logic of charge either equal or with specific selection or priorisation according to your applications

Control of the charging and discharging of the charging station according to the instructions received by the local utility.

Monitor your assets with data intelligence

From all linked devices on site (meters, solar inverters, genset controllers, weather stations (irradiance/t°), and I/O modules), & offer a secure local storage.
  • Locally, over USB,
  • Locally, over Modbus gateway
  • Remotely, using ePowerMonitor or
    compatible third-party monitoring platforms
    (FTP push, API integration).

Frequently asked questions

ePowerControl EV is suited for the control and monitoring of solar + BESS + EV charging applications (grid-tied or custom).

ePowerControl EV is compliant with the national grid requirements. Our solution has been successfully installed and tested with some grid codes (France, etc)

Elum solution supports OCPP 1.6 and OCPP 2.0 protocols by default. Other protocols can be configured upon request.
