As electrical vehicles become more and more mainstream, the demand for charging stations grows. At the same time, the available power at a site may put a limitation on how many cars can be charged simultaneously. For the contribution to the Dezyne Challenge 2018, a team of ICT employees has developed a smart charger for electrical vehicles. When connected in a network, these smart chargers will dynamically divide the available electric power amongst them, whilst taking the overall demand into account. This way, the chargers are able to efficiently share the power available, while respecting the site’s limitations.
