🎅Santa’s e-Sleigh Saved by Octave ! 🚀 How the Octave Load Balancer ensured Christmas wasn’t canceled. The Clean Tech Collective operates with a contractual grid offtake limit of 140 kVA. The challenge? Managing EV charging alongside other electricity consumers on-site. In the chart below, the red dotted line shows how much power remains for EV charging. ⚡️ Before 9:20 AM The Octave Load Balancer smoothly managed the load, allowing 4 EVs to charge at full power. The green line illustrates their total active power. 🛷 At 9:20 AM Santa arrives, needing an urgent DC charge for his sleigh! This sudden surge threatens to exceed the grid offtake limit—potentially causing disruptions. 🔧 9:20 AM to 9:55 AM The Octave Load Balancer dynamically adjusts the power of the AC chargers to prioritize the sleigh’s charging needs, ensuring the site stays within its grid limits. ⏱ By 9:55 AM With Santa’s sleigh ready to go, all PLUON AC chargers return to full power. No disruptions, no downtime—just efficient energy management. 🎄 Merry Christmas from the Octave Team!

👀 Here's a look behind the scenes of the P3 institute, where car chargers were tested in cooperation with Auto Bild. Our go-e Charger Gemini 2.0 received a "good" rating, scoring 1.5. ⚡ 👍 P3 and Auto Bild highlighted its seamless integration with the go-e Controller and its compatibility with third-party energy management systems. Further points were won by its advanced functionalities such as PV surplus charging and dynamic electricity tariffs. The go-e Charger's easy installation was another point of praise, requiring minimal wiring and no opening of the charger shell. 🛠️ Our team appreciates the valuable in-depth assessment P3 and Autobild provide, detailing strengths as well as potential for improvement and further development, to expand its functions and ensure it runs as smoothly as clockwork. ⚙️ For more details on the testing procedure, visit our YouTube channel: https://bit.ly/4f7y1YK

Developing a national standard for reporting and recording failures is the first step that must be taken to improve charger reliability. One out of every five sessions ends without charging. According to the Electrification Institute, based on network data from across the U.S., the most common reasons for failed EV charging sessions include: Station Connectivity (55%) – Failing to connect to the network for authentication. Internal Station Faults or Errors (38%) – Any failure with the software and some hardware features. Charging Connector or Cable (4%) Although the broader failure category is known, the exact reason the failure occurred isn’t always easily identifiable. #evcharging #startups #venturecapital #electricvehicles
⚡ California leads the nation in EVs and the public charging network, but the California Energy Commission knows there is still work to be done to improve charger reliability. That's why the CEC is laser focused on developing first-in-the-world state regulations for charger reliability and reporting standards. Keep an eye out for our upcoming revised draft regulation coming soon. 📰 Read more about how we are working diligently to improve the performance of the public charging network in my op-ed posted in The Sacramento Bee today👇 https://lnkd.in/dUs9VHy3
