Rotopark.
Multipoint EV charging system with Smart Power Management.
Applications
Multi-plug charging system for long-stay parking lots such as corporate parking lots or interchange areas
Value
Reduced grid connection and installation costs. Thanks to its patented technology, Rotopark shares available power among the charging points in use
Technology
Patented technology for intelligent distribution of available power
- Optimize infrastructure costs
- Simplify installation
- Improving efficiency
Problem
Traditional charging systems for electric vehicles, in long-stay parking lots (such as business parks and interchange areas), involve particularly significant costs for grid connection, infrastructure and installation. The electrical sizing of the system should be done on the basis of the maximum possible absorption of all charging points, even if the long parking time of the vehicles would allow for reduced and distributed charging power.
Solution
Rotopark is a multipoint charging system that can distribute the available power among all station outlets in real time according to the needs of each.
The maximum available power can be set permanently or dynamically, such as according to time slots, remotely via the OCPP protocol or based on data read from an external Energy Meter.
For example, the maximum power of a station with 10 charging points of 22 kW can be set to 100 kW; when up to 4 charging points are in use, they will deliver the maximum power; from the fifth, the charging power can be reduced according to the instantaneous power drawn by each charging point.
Compared with traditional charging systems, Rotopark reduces connection and infrastructure costs and allows new outlets to be added even after the first installation, avoiding further work and expense. Different types of charging outlets, such as single-phase AC, three-phase AC, and DC, can be combined in the same station.
Rotopark meets all requirements for LEED certification of building eco-sustainability.
Each station can be remotely monitored using the OCPP protocol for collecting, consulting, and periodically sending recharge data to the operator.
The Rotopark system is entirely developed and manufactured by S&h.
