Energy Management

Energy Management that puts power where you need it most

An Energy Management System encompasses various strategies, technologies, and practices to optimise energy consumption, reduce costs, and prevent grid overload. This system is suitable for commercial fleets, such as delivery bus, vans, trucks, and public transport vehicles, which need efficient energy utilisation to maintain smooth operations. Key benefits include timed connections, vehicle scheduling, and the use of off-peak tariffs, which collectively reduce operational expenses and extend the lifespan of EV assets. Connect via the EO Cloud; EO Hub automates load management, ensuring EVs are charged efficiently even with constrained power infrastructure.

Why do I need Energy Management?

Energy supply is a finite resource; one of the biggest challenges fleets face when transitioning to Electric Vehicles (EVs) is managing the available power on site. As you ramp your EV fleet, power management becomes a key challenge in delivering a charging platform you can depend on. Load management, site supply throttling, scheduled charging and dynamic charge allocation all ensure your EV fleet receives the required amount of charge, every time, at the lowest available cost.

Built to Save You Money

EO Hub has been designed to improve operational efficiencies and contribute to fleet management cost savings. EO Cloud software supported by EO Hub, uses load management to utilise available power and automatically distributes power to priority vehicles. Our solution further supports the management of energy consumption, enabling fleets to maximise the use of off-peak energy tariffs. We've already helped customers save millions of pounds; here is a sample of what you could save.

Integration

EO Hub is tightly integrated with the EO Cloud software platform and leverages it's unmatched 'plug and play' charger integrations, as well as support for any standards compliant infrastructure.

Leveraging the Power of EO Cloud

Effortlessly upgrade your EO managed depot with EO Hub in a few streamlined steps. Assessing the setup, connecting EO Hub to the charging stations' network, and optionally link it to a Smart Meter for precise power allocation, maximising the use of available power on site. Compatibility for 50+ OCPP charging station models ensures seamless integration, requiring no extra hardware if already connected to the EO Cloud. Elevate your charging infrastructure effortlessly.

Does EO Hub include the required smart meter, and if not, what type of smart meter is compatible, and can EO provide it?

No, the smart meter is a separate device and is optional. If there is a Smart Meter on site our team can do an investigation and determine if it's supported by EO Hub. Any RS485 Modbus Smart Power Meter is supported by EO Hub, and our team of engineers is able to install it on-site, alongside the Hub's setup.

Can I use EO Hub to prioritise load to my vehicles that need it most (for example, those with the lowest state of charge)?

EO Hub efficiently allocates maximum power to active charging stations, redistributing excess power among the active charging stations if some don't require the maximum.

How will EO Hub's load management impact any schedules I've set for my chargers?

EO Hub adheres to scheduled charging station times, managing power load only during specified periods, such as 23:00 - 07:00.
