Osprey Charging has adopted Dynamic Load Management (DLM) technology from Evolt Charging at its Stratford International hub, to maximise charging speeds without the need for additional energy capacity.
Originally opened in 2021 with six Raption 50kW chargers from Evolt Charging, Osprey launched the Stratford EV rapid charging hub in partnership with Transport for London (TfL).
To meet growing demand at the site, Evolt has now installed three of the more powerful and much faster Raption 100kW chargers to deliver ultra-rapid charging meaning users can attain a full charge between 16 and 36 minutes depending on the percentage of charge.
It has also installed its DLM system, which works with both the 50kW and 100kW chargers to smartly distribute the available power where it is needed, using the original power supply.
The DLM system recognises unused capacity at one charger and distributes it to another, optimising the efficiency of energy distribution, reducing the risk of overloading and minimising the need for costly infrastructure upgrades.
Lewis Gardiner, Director of Operations at Osprey Charging, said, “DLM is crucial for optimising power distribution and allowing us to install the optimum number and power rating of EV chargers at both new and existing sites, and part of our expansion plans.
“Over the past year, we have upgraded more than 50 sites across our network to meet increasing demand.
“Early feedback on the DLM system at Stratford has been positive, with customers experiencing improved charging efficiency and reduced wait times.”
Anne Buckingham, Managing Director at Evolt Charging said, “We know charge point operators want to expand upon existing sites, and our DLM solution is the perfect solution to overcome the barriers of increased power capacity, time and costs.”
