EV Charging + Storage Solutions
Pair energy storage with EV charging to add fast-charging capacity without costly grid upgrades, and to shield sites from demand charges.

01The Challenge
The Challenge
Fast EV charging creates short, severe power spikes that can exceed a site’s grid connection and trigger high demand charges or expensive upgrades.
- Fast chargers demand more power than many grid connections allow
- Simultaneous charging events cause costly demand-charge spikes
- Grid capacity upgrades are slow and expensive
- Charging uptime affects customer and fleet satisfaction
02Solution Overview
How the System Works
The storage buffer charges slowly from the grid or on-site solar. When chargers demand a burst of power, the battery supplies the difference, so the site's grid draw stays within its connection limit. The EMS keeps peak demand — and the resulting charges — under control.
1
Buffer
Storage charges steadily from the grid or on-site solar at low power.
2
Boost
During charging peaks the battery supplements grid supply for fast delivery.
3
Protect
Peak draw stays within the connection limit, avoiding demand-charge spikes.
03System Architecture
Typical System Architecture
The battery sits between the grid connection and the chargers. It charges slowly and discharges fast, so the grid only sees a steady, bounded draw even when multiple vehicles charge at once.
EV charging + storage topology: sources → PCS buffer → BMS → battery → chargers and site loads.

09FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Can we add fast chargers without upgrading the grid connection?
Often yes. A storage buffer supplies the extra power during charging peaks so the grid draw stays within the existing connection limit.
Does this work with solar?
Yes. The buffer can be charged from on-site solar as well as off-peak grid energy.
How is the system sized?
Sizing depends on charger power, expected simultaneous sessions and connection capacity. We recommend a configuration on request.
