The Benefits of Energy Management Systems for EV Charging in Strata Buildings.

As electric vehicle (EV) adoption rises, strata buildings face increasing demand for EV charging solutions. However, adding EV chargers to existing electrical systems can place a strain on infrastructure, leading to high costs and potential upgrades. This is where an Energy Management System, like JET Charge’s CORE, becomes invaluable.

What is CORE?

CORE is an Energy Management System (EMS) specifically designed to help buildings support multiple EV chargers with existing electrical infrastructure. It optimises energy distribution, ensuring that EVs can charge efficiently without the need for costly upgrades.

Key Benefits of CORE for Strata Buildings

1. Efficient Energy Use

• CORE allows buildings to charge multiple EVs simultaneously, maximising the use of available power.

• This system helps avoid peak demand charges by distributing power strategically.

2. Cost Savings

• By utilising existing electrical systems, CORE eliminates the need for expensive infrastructure upgrades.

• With its "pay as you grow" model, CORE offers scalability as more residents adopt EVs.

3. Enhanced Safety

• CORE safeguards a building’s electrical infrastructure by regulating energy flow.

• The system prevents overloading, reducing the risk of electrical faults or outages.

Why Energy Management is Essential for Strata Buildings

Adding EV chargers to strata buildings can put a strain on existing electrical setups. An effective Energy Management System:

• Prevents infrastructure strain: Allows buildings to support EVs without overloading circuits.

• Lowers operational costs: By optimising energy use, it reduces unnecessary energy consumption.

• Supports long-term sustainability: CORE’s smart management aligns with eco-friendly goals, supporting more EVs with less environmental impact.

How CORE Works

CORE is the central intelligence for building-wide EV charging:

• Load Management: Distributes energy efficiently across EV chargers based on demand.

• Digital Analytics: Monitors energy use and optimises distribution to protect the building’s power.

• Minimal On-Site Monitoring: Comes with a front panel display, offering basic system information for on-site managers.

For strata buildings looking to support EV charging without the high costs of electrical upgrades, JET Charge’s CORE offers a smart, scalable solution.

Enhancing safety, reducing costs, and optimising energy use, CORE empowers strata buildings to meet the growing demand for EV charging and contribute to a more sustainable future.
