Our EV Charging Smart-Metering solution provides precise, individual metering on communal EV charging stations, ensuring each vehicle owner is accurately billed for usage. This tailored approach to EV charging management benefits owners corporations, building managers and residents alike by delivering transparent and reliable data on energy consumption, preventing disputes, and ensuring fair distribution of costs.
With individualised monitoring, building managers and owners corporations can eliminate guesswork, assuring residents that they are only paying for their personal usage. This system improves cost management and accountability, helping organisations maintain positive resident relationships and streamline billing processes.
Beyond operational efficiency, this smart metering solution has significant environmental benefits. By providing accurate data on charging habits and energy use, organisations can encourage responsible energy consumption among EV users.
Apartment building EV charging (New Zealand case study)
The example below is from a New Zealand building.At a recent installation in an apartment building, the EV charging meters were billed through the owners corporation to all residents, whether or not they drove an EV.
Smart Metering streamlined the process by installing our Smart Pulse unit, wired to the pulse output of each existing EV charging meter. With this configuration, the daily power consumption of each EV charging station is automatically uploaded to our cloud-based platform and charged accordingly to the user.
Now, total power consumption reports and billing can be easily managed from the central office over any chosen period, ensuring accurate and efficient cost distribution for all users and non-users.
