Explore articles, case studies, and industry updates on fleet electrification and smart charging.
Walk through Driva’s electrification project, highlighting the practical challenges of scaling to 130 buses and how ChargeSim was used to test charging strategies and depot designs. You will learn where traditional planning fell short, what the data revealed, and the design choices that ultimately reduced grid demand by 10%.
Fast charging for buses is often done via an overhead pantograph, also known as J3105. But what are the pros and cons of the Pantograph Up or Pantograph Down versions?
After a week at the symposium and trade show, the industry is levelling out, and V2G and automatic connection are the new topics.
This guide explains how to implement smart charging backoffice using OCPP.
Simple smart charging can capture most of the savings.
Reducing demand on the grid with V2G will always be more expensive than just reducing charging that is happening anyway, so when and how often will V2G be valuable?
V2G is often discussed as an important feature - but when is it valuable and how much could it be worth?
The usable size of a battery is often different from the nameplate size, and it is important to understand which you are working with.
ChargeSim can help with strategic planning by turning future schedules into projections for utility needs.
Understanding electricity tariffs is essential to picking the right charging strategy and infrastructure.
Simulating and modeling charging with ChargeSim can lower costs by selecting the right chargers, layout, and grid power.
