Smart charging electric vehicles – Allego

Smart Charging uses algorithms to manage charging sessions: smartly balanced between the demand from electric cars and the available capacity at grid connections.

Charging Plaza

Allego’s Charging Plaza are the perfect charging solution for locations with limited electrical capacity, a large number of electric vehicles, and flexible use by EV drivers.

More charging sockets. Lower costs.

As the demand for electric charging grows, you will find yourself facing high costs for increasing your capacity. Our ChargingPlaza make smart use of the capacity you have available, helping you to avoid the extra investments that would be required to upgrade your systems or grid connection.
 

How smart charging works

EV drivers can charge at regular (3,7-22 kW) or fast speed (43 kW / 50 kW) just as they can at individual charging stations. Cars are charged in periods ranging from 20 minutes to eight hours. The charging speed is dependent not only on the type of vehicle, but also on the following factors:

Simultaneousness

Not all EV drivers need a full battery at the same time. The charging plaza allocates the available capacity to the charging sockets based on the demand at that given time, allowing EV drivers to charge their vehicles optimally. This is referred to as “load-balancing”. Charging speed is adjusted automatically as soon as maximum capacity is reached.

Available capacity

Based on a capacity of just 3×63 amperes, 18 vehicles can be charged at the same time. Electrical capacity of at least 125 amperes is required for fast charging at the charging plaza.

Smart, attractive, and sustainable

You can choose to have individual charging stations controlled centrally from your meter cabinet. You can also decide on individual charging sockets that are centrally controlled from the parking location. All the connections, switches, and network technology are installed at the central control point at the parking location. The central control point and the charging sockets are integrated into their surroundings, making charging attractive to all!
