EV Charging Infrastructure Without Grid Upgrades
As fleets switch to electric, businesses often find that their existing grid connection can't handle the massive draw required by multiple rapid EV chargers. A traditional grid upgrade can take months (or years) and cost hundreds of thousands of pounds.
The BESS Buffer
A DropBox BESS acts as a "buffer" between the grid and your EV chargers. The battery trickles-charges from the grid at a manageable rate and then "bursts" that power into the vehicles when they plug in. This allows you to install high-speed chargers on a site that otherwise wouldn't have the capacity.
Smart Load Management
By integrating a BESS with your EV infrastructure, you can manage load effectively, ensuring that vehicles are charged using the cheapest and cleanest electricity available. It’s a scalable solution that grows with your fleet, allowing you to add more capacity as you need it.
