A Truly Smart EV charger considers the integration with future technologies and relieves pressure from our electricity grid. We know how important getting value for money from your EV chargers is. You need to be out on the road with the comfort and assurance you are able to reach the required destination. And let’s face it, you’re being more sustainable!
We sat down with the guys from Myenergi, who kindly spoke to us about the benefits of EV chargers and how their Zappi unit can help.
What are smart EV chargers?
Smart EV chargers in their simplest form are chargers which can be connected to the internet. The main purpose of this connection is to ensure that the device can be updated with firmware. This is especially as new software and technologies are released into the market.
Ultimately being smart, is future-proofing the device so that it doesn’t become defunct years down the line, providing that longevity and peace of mind.
Truly intelligent smart EV charger will also have the ability to integrate with other renewable energy sources such as solar panels, domestic wind turbines, battery storage. This will work harmoniously with elements such as air source heat pumps and wider renewable energy technologies around the either the home or work place.
Other factors such as how it can save customers money through integration with time of use tariffs and economy tariffs should also be considered when selecting a smart charger.
Zappi
zappi is a popular choice for those looking for a truly intelligent smart charger as it ticks all the boxes of what is considered a smart charger.
zappi has been carefully designed to include several features and functions to give users complete control of their electric car charging experience. This includes the ability to utilise time of use and economy tariffs. It allows users to schedule chargers at times when energy tariffs are at their lowest, thus encouraging energy consciousness. This is especially important at the moment with rising energy costs.
Not only does myenergi design their products for the complete user-friendly experience but equally with the installation process in mind. Reducing face fix cabling and the need to reduce disruption to existing buildings was an important factor in the product design process.
