Charger control management
Flexible and configurable smart software management.
Smart charging
Smart chargers that modulate their power are game-changers!
Whilst EVs are an opportunity for cleaner, cheaper transport they pose a major risk for building power supplies and the wider grid. To ensure the cost of upgrading building power supplies and the wider grid does not unfairly fall on the shoulders of lower-income users, Thundergrid is focused on solving grid congestion issues without the need to rebuild the grid..……by simply charging smarter!
1.
No power upgrades
As our chargers modulate the speed of charging, there’s often no need for you to invest thousands into larger power boards, cables or transformer capacity.
2.
No power outages
Our chargers monitor what else is happening in your building or street, slowing down charging until your power supply improves to ensure your electrical capacity is never exceeded.
3.
No power games
When there are a number of EVs charging, our system allows a driver who needs a quick top-up to set up priority charging status on their car–ensuring your car is road-ready when you need it.

What is dynamic load management?
Many EV chargers on the market do not communicate with one another or share power supplies. Our cloud-based technology solves this by linking all chargers together, clustering the building or residential load to remain within the limits of upstream capacity and local transformer limits.
Dynamic load management modulates the speed of EV charging so your organisation remains in harmony with the load of your building. Our cloud-based technology links all chargers together, clustering your EV infrastructure to remain within the limits of upstream capacity. We do this to help you avoid costly electrical upgrades.
