Managed charging is going to become more and more important as more customers adopt electric vehicles.
And why utilities should start managed charging programs now is
because it's coming very fast.
And managed charging specifically is going to be crucial for our grid operations. If we aren't actually coordinating who's charging on a substation or a transformer at what time, we're going to end up negatively impacting reliability and/or over-investing in new infrastructure.
Alternatively, the best case scenario is to intelligently work with customers to help them charge at the right place and right time so that they're always getting the charge that they need, but they're doing it in a way that's helping the community.
We have so much energy intelligence that we can lean on with smart meter data. We're actually able to pinpoint the customers who are most in
need of managed charging, and those who will have the biggest impact when it comes time to shift that load and support the overall energy community.
Bidgely's advanced data science is able to identify those customers, and in doing so, create the most cost effective managed charging programs.
