AmpUp, the leading electric vehicle (EV) charging platform, announced the launch of its Advanced Load Management feature, alongside two additional product features designed to enhance EV charging performance and efficiency.
Key Highlights:
- Cloud-based Advanced Load Management feature
- Prevents grid overloads and power outages
- Dynamically controls charging power
- Maximizes cost savings
- Avoids additional infrastructure damages and demand charges
Advanced Load Management:
AmpUp addresses the common challenge of limited panel and circuit space in commercial properties with EV chargers. Their cloud-based Advanced Load Management feature allows customers to deploy more charging stalls without expensive infrastructure upgrades. This feature dynamically controls charging power based on available circuit capacity, preventing grid overloads that could cause power outages, tripping breakers, or burning out panels. By avoiding these risks, customers save money and prevent additional infrastructure damages and demand charges.
Cost-Effective Alternative:
The Advanced Load Management feature serves as a cost-effective alternative to expensive local load controllers. It dynamically allocates available electricity in real-time, tailoring power distribution to different EV batteries based on their charging requirements. This feature also enables customers to set varying load caps, ensuring efficient and customized power distribution.
“Meeting our customers’ needs is our top priority, and the new Advanced Load Management feature is a pivotal solution for them,” said Tom Sun, CEO and co-founder of AmpUp. “By dynamically allocating power, we can enhance the overall efficiency and user experience of EV charging despite energy constraints. We aim to simplify EV charging while providing the energy balance for a cleaner, smarter grid.“
Additional Features:
Fee Management: For Pro Plan customers, AmpUp’s new Fee Management feature provides flexibility in handling service and processing fees. Site hosts can either cover these fees on behalf of their drivers using pre-set pricing or pass the fees directly to the drivers. This allows site hosts to customize their pricing strategy, ensuring the sustainability of the AmpUp network and driver satisfaction.
Automated Billing: The new Automated Billing feature streamlines the billing process and improves operational efficiency. Once EV chargers are installed, site hosts can access licenses and manage billing instantly. Invoices for customers with payment methods on file renew automatically with sufficient notice, while others can prepay to avoid service disruption.
