Overview:
Dynamic Load Management is a system used to optimise the distribution of electrical power in environments with multiple EV chargers. It ensures that the total energy demand is balanced and efficiently allocated across all chargers, preventing overloading the electrical infrastructure. Dynamic Load Management can prioritise charging for specific vehicles, manage peak demand times, and help reduce energy costs.
Rapidly evolving technologies include EV charging supported by ‘Battery Energy Storage Systems’ (BESS), ‘Megawatt’ charging stations for heavy vehicles and ‘Vehicle-to-Grid’ (V2G) technology. V2G can enhance grid resilience by providing a decentralised and flexible energy resource. During power outages or grid disruptions, EVs connected to the grid can act as mobile energy sources, discharging stored electricity back into the grid or directly powering local homes and businesses.
In addition to our Electrical Engineering Group members, we extend the invitation to all interested parties.
Key Learning Outcomes:
• AC & DC Chargers – Areas of application and benefits
• Why & How: EV infrastructure with Dynamic Load Management
• Future technologies & Megawatt charging stations

Following the presentation, and hands-on learning with some EV chargers, there will be the opportunity for a Q&A and a mutual exchange of learnings.
This presentation is available to attend in person only and is Wellington based at the Thundergrid headquarters. Registration is required to attend.
Doors open at 5:00 pm for drinks and nibbles with the presentation starting at 5:30pm sharp.
