The PNNL technology tells a vehicle’s battery charger when to start and stop charging based upon existing conditions on the electrical grid. has licensed smart charging controller technology developed at the US Department of Energy (DOE) Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) for incorporation into its charging station equipment.

Together the companies will add a layer of intelligence and convenience to the charging process, allowing EV drivers to access, charge and pay, using an identification card. The platform will connect ESB Networks with the energy retailers and the charge-points, allowing all three to communicate energy usage and financial data directly.

V2X, meaning vehicle-to-everything, is the overarching term for transferring the electricity stored in electric vehicle (EV) batteries to the grid, buildings, houses, and other energy-consuming destinations. These terms designate the different destinations for the electricity drawn from the connected EV battery. V2X requires:

To fully acknowledge the importance of smart charging for EVs, it helps to compare it to “dumb charging.” Consider plugging in your cell phone: While it can communicate to you its charge level , the phone is not communicating with the power grid and the charging implement to adapt its power usage.

Also, the majority of these vehicles sit unused during the summer when electricity demands are often the highest and take the greatest toll on the power grid. This makes them perfect targets for vehicle-to-grid (V2G) integration. . While the technology is not yet available on all buses, it’s becoming more common.

The power panel capacity sets the number of charging stations. It varies based on the location and the power grid capacity. For instance, Alan’s hotel has an electrical power of 160A, which allows him to install four 32A charging stations. Only four because a 32A charging station needs 40A of power allocated.

That means a high cost of investment today, with long-term payoff over the next years of EV growth. The grid and the growing power demand for electric vehicle charging infrastructure. Moreover, as McKinsey notes, “few grids can deliver large amounts of electricity to many EVs at high rates at the same time.”
