UK Power Networks has published a free guide on the basics of installing electric vehicle charging points at your house or company – from kW to MW installations.
The guide is a top-level skim over the subject, but at least sets the scene for anyone considering taking their organisation electric.
Included is an interesting case-study, where 2.5MW of electric charging for busses in London was installed despite limitations on the local high-voltage network.
Rather than a nine month programme to beef-up the feed, the answer was to use a timed output and only allow busses to take full load during night-time off-peak hours when surrounding local load was at a minimum. 500kW is available in the day-time for top-up charging.
Waterloo bus garage, for that is where it is, was officially opened in September last year.
It is called ‘Getting electric vehicles moving, all you need to know about getting an electricity connection for your fleet‘.
