Volvo Truck and Bus Centre London North in Enfield has become the latest HGV dealer site in the UK to feature Dynamic Load Management (DLM) technology from Evolt Charging.
Evolt’s DLM, which is being used in conjunction with a battery energy storage solution from Connected Energy, ensures sufficient power is always available to charge trucks through new high-power charging (HPC) units as well as the AC and DC charging points installed.
It recognises unused capacity at one charger and distributes it to another, allowing other trucks to charge at an optimal rate.
The DLM solution not only helps dealerships to optimise the distribution of energy between the Evolt EV chargers, but, conjunction with Connected Energy’s battery storage solution, also enables Volvo to install additional charging units on site without the need to secure additional energy capacity.
It follows the successful launch of a similar system, including DLM and battery energy storage, installed at Volvo Truck and Bus Centre North and Scotland in Carlisle last year.
Justin Meyer, Managing Director of SWARCO Smart Charging, parent company of Evolt Charging said the use of DLM in conjunction with battery energy storage overcomes the challenge of connecting to the Grid, and ensures sufficient energy is required when it is needed.
He added, “For Volvo Trucks, this combination of technologies is a genuine game-changer in accelerating the introduction of the next generation of trucks, unencumbered by any challenges of grid capacity.
“We are pleased to support their mission to accelerate the roll out of specialist truck charging solutions across their UK dealerships.”
