The increasing adoption of electric vehicles creates new demands on the power grid. Many areas, especially rural ones, lack sufficient capacity to support fast chargers, while upgrading a grid line can cost tens of thousands of euros and take up to six months.
Meanwhile, when many vehicles charge at the same time, demand spikes burden grid stability and raise energy costs for everyone.
By combining photovoltaic panels, battery storage and smart energy management software, the EVBOOST hybrid station delivers far more charging power than its grid connection alone would allow. It does this without expensive upgrades and without compromising distribution grid stability.
The system «learns» consumption and production patterns to charge the battery during cheap, green hours and discharge it when vehicles need power.
