View the expected impact of installing EV chargers with EnergyMap

Written by Barbara Morris

Plan your site EV infrastructure installation with one of the latest products released in the FuuseEnergy suite, EnergyMap. This risk management tool, available in two tiers, EnergyMap and EnergyMap PRO, presents you with a window into the power usage of your sites.

How it works

Using historic electricity demand data to map out energy usage, max demand, base load, and energy capacity on site, EnergyMap analyses half hourly metered consumption data over a set period to establish site baseline demand. The data collected is then added to the planned project demand to calculate the impact on the site electrical and DNO capacity.

EnergyMap clearly showcases the expected impact of EV charging on your sites in the context of historic energy usage, so you can make informed decisions on any projected follow-on actions:

  • necessary energy upgrades to support EV charging
  • potential to lower contracted capacity or add more chargers
  • flags if a site is near max capacity
  • dynamic load balancing to maximise chargers

 

"EnergyMap is a game changer for enterprises to get a closer understanding of their energy usage and the impact EV charging will have on their site overall.​"

Tom Arapura, Head of Product Strategy at Fuuse

If your sites are not equipped for half hourly metering, then EnergyMap PRO can offer a more intricate energy mapping solution, utilising energy monitoring hardware instead of half hourly data.

With Fuuse EnergyMap Pro, you will have access to additional tools to map your energy over a measurable period of time. Energy logger hardware is available to hire on a monthly or weekly basis, as well as temporary access to Fuuse Energy Monitoring Platform, providing you with real time energy demand visibility.

Following the data collection period, you will be provided a full comprehensive report highlighting expected impact of EV charging and other key insights to inform infrastructural planning.

 

Fuuse EnergyLogger hardwareSmarter hardware for greater reliability

With EnergyMap PRO, installing the innovatively designed hardware, EnergyLogger, to your site delivers real-time data on your energy usage and breaker trip rating to your Energy Monitoring dashboard.

This tool uses assigned limits within your Energy Monitoring dashboard to prevent damaging capacity spikes, protecting your site and the DNO, whilst managing your EV charger needs.

To prevent any lapse in monitoring your energy demand, the Fuuse EnergyLogger will automatically switch to a 4G connection if WiFi signal is lost. This reliable feature is unique to FuuseEnergy when compared to most other competitive energy monitoring providers on the market focused on EV charging.

With the data extracted from the Energy Monitoring dashboard with EnergyMap, you are equipped to make informed decisions about your EV charging and how you plan charging sessions. Coupled with the Fuuse EV charging back office platform's Smart Charging features, you'll have the tools needed to set designated charging times for the chargers across your sites.

Within the Fuuse Platform, you can set open charging hours outside your high energy demand times to help alleviate some of the energy demand at your sites, as well as reduce the risk of energy spikes.

Smart Charging also offers randomised start times for charging, protecting your site from too many chargers initiating a charge all at once, resulting in energy spikes.
