How Smart EV Charging Will Help Promote Renewable Power Generation

Wallbox

A smart EV charger will enable an EV to be charged when weather conditions allow and there is a surfeit of low carbon, low cost power available. Similarly, because a smart EV charger can adapt charging speed and time, it can also help minimise demand on the grid when renewable-generated power is low.
