Due to the intelligent charging system and design-to-cost approach, there is no need to invest in the expansion of the grid connection, resulting in substantial cost and time savings during the installation of the charging infrastructure. The central control unit distributes the available charging capacity to the parked vehicles using dynamic and phase-individual load management.
chargeBIG responds flexibly to other consumers in the network and uses the electric vehicles as a controllable load. This ensures optimal utilization of the available power supply.

Based on market prices or the supply of renewable energy
Control and regulation on supply voltage and grid frequency (without compensation)
The chargeBIG charging infrastructure can be used to control the load and energy management in a building while avoiding to exceed the maximum load limit. Thus costs for peak power can be reduced. chargeBIG can also regulate other loads by prioritizing these loads such as the kitchen or the test bench and reducing the electric vehicles as a controllable load in the charging power. If the chargeBIG system should not regulate autonomously, it can be integrated into the building management system and react to load specifications within one second.
The phase individual load management of chargeBIG has an integrated active unbalanced load avoidance. It is continuously checked that no unbalanced loads of more than 20A occur on the different phases L1, L2 and L3. In order to compensate unbalanced loads the charging power on these phases are increased accordingly. Generally, in Germany unbalanced loads of less than 20A are allowed according to the “Technische Anschlussbedingungen” (TAB).
