EV smart charger

An EV charger with dynamic load balancing, also known as a smart EV charger, measures the total energy consumption in your home or network during car charging. This is a technology in a charging station that prevents overcharging. Moreover, it prevents sudden power outages at home while charging your electric car, while at the same time ensuring optimal charging power.

Advantages of load balancer EV charging station

The advantages of a load balancer charging station are clear. Less overcharging, efficient use and strong cost savings.

1. Prevents overloading: load balancing dynamically adjusts the charging rate to avoid peak load on the power network. This minimises the risk of power outages and other network problems.
2. Efficient use of resources: it ensures more efficient use of available electric resources by distributing them evenly among the connected electric vehicles, optimising the overall load on the network.
3. Cost savings: by avoiding excessive demand for electric power, utilities can reduce costs for network upgrades. This also leads to lower electricity costs for users, as tariffs are often based on peak load.
