SolarEdge Technologies, Inc. introduces a revolutionary solar-attached EV management solution. The AI-driven software optimizes EV charging for dynamic loads, enhancing efficiency at workplaces, apartment buildings, and public charging stations.
What’s Happening
Global smart energy technology leader, SolarEdge Technologies, Inc., is extending its portfolio of Commercial and Industrial (C&I) products with a novel solar-attached Electric Vehicle (EV) management solution. This advanced software-based solution is designed to optimize EV charging in environments demanding dynamic load management and housing substantial EV numbers, such as workplaces, apartment buildings, and public charging points.
Why It Matters
The solution, based on sophisticated AI algorithms, leverages real-time data analytics to regulate the EV charging process. It considers variables like solar production, changing electricity prices, and tiered charging timetables. As it smoothly integrates with SolarEdge’s energy management system, the novel offering orchestrates and maximizes interactions between the facility’s solar generation, stationary battery storage, and large-scale EV charging. It does this while taking into account grid and infrastructure limitations.
Key Points
SolarEdge’s new EV charging management solution is underpinned by technology crafted by Wevo Energy, an emerging player specializing in EV charging optimization and management software. SolarEdge has strategically invested in Wevo, indicating a commitment to a sustainable future.
SolarEdge CEO Zvi Lando emphasized the sustainable and cost-effective potential of integrating solar PV and EV charging for company car fleets. He stated his belief that the union of SolarEdge’s C&I PV solutions with Wevo’s superior EV charging management capabilities could significantly help businesses use energy more sustainably and economically.
Wevo Energy’s CEO, Teddy Flatau, also stressed the promising prospects of combining Wevo’s software with SolarEdge’s PV solution and market presence. He foresees this collaboration accelerating the deployment of load-balanced EV charging infrastructure on a global scale.
Bottom Line
SolarEdge is ready to exhibit its new solar-attached C&I EV charging solution and Wevo Energy’s software at the Intersolar Booth B4. 110. The pioneering solution is initially set to launch in Germany and the UK, with swift expansion plans targeting other markets. This represents a significant stride towards making energy use more sustainable and economical in the commercial and industrial segment.
