Description (French)
Le projet vise à développer la plateforme de contrôle et de logiciel pour la gestion et le contrôle de la demande d’énergie des infrastructures de recharge des VE et des ressources d’énergie renouvelable à la fois à l’échelle locale et à grande échelle. Avec la plateforme de gestion avancée de la charge et de l’énergie qui combine le nuage et l’informatique périphérique, le système peut intégrer la charge des VE avec les énergies renouvelables et le stockage de l’énergie pour minimiser l’impact sur l’infrastructure électrique. Il offre également des possibilités d’intégration avec d’autres systèmes électriques et de gestion des utilisateurs, afin d’offrir aux conducteurs de véhicules électriques une expérience transparente.
