AC DC EV Charging Metering Solution
EV chargers come in three main types:
AC chargers provide slow charging (5-8 hours) by supplying AC power to the vehicle's onboard charger.
DC chargers offer fast charging (30-120 minutes) by delivering high-power DC directly to the battery.
AC-DC integrated chargers combine both functions but are less common due to their high cost.
All charging stations are equipped with revenue-grade energy meters to accurately bill users for their electricity usage. Companies like IVY METERING develop specialized AC and DC meters to meet the specific needs of these chargers.
According to the market demand of charging piles, IVY METERING has developed AC DC charging meters respectively. It can meet the different requirements of different charging piles for electric meters. For example AC energy meter of 0.25-5(30)A, 5(32)A, 5(40)A, 5(50)A, 5(80)A, 5(100)A-EM118089/90/91,EM519032/33/24.DC energy meter of 10-240A, 2000A, 1000Vdc-EM613001/005, EM619001/002
A key evolution is Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technology, which allows for bidirectional energy flow. This treats idle EVs as distributed energy storage units. For users, V2G can lower costs and serve as an emergency power source. For the power grid, it helps balance loads, improves grid stability and efficiency, and reduces the need for costly energy storage investments.
The charging pile needs to meet the V2G function, which will increase the requirements for the electric energy meter, and the IVY METERING charging pile electric meter can fully meet the requirements.
