TS : How does EV charging integrate with the wider infrastructure to become smarter ?
JP : ChargePoint ’ s charging technology is already smart , able to distribute power dependent on a wide range of inputs , such as time of day ( cost & capacity ), fleet planning and routing demands ( through fleet management integrations ) and type of user ( employee , member of the public etc ).
There are also a wide variety of solutions being integrated into the wider network , such as stationary storage and local renewable sources , which can be combined with smart charging to help further reduce infrastructure costs related to grid connection and electricity procurement costs ( e . g . by enabling truck fleets to minimise cost by arbitraging price variability throughout the day , taking advantage of vehicle-to-grid opportunities ).
