The Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) system can be smoothly integrated with an EVSE metre due to the Smart Grid. As a result, a utility is able to segregate EV charging from the main metre and charge customers for it separately.
The use of AMI integration can also make it simple for utilities to monitor and report EV charging usage for greenhouse gas credits and to use data to foresee local reliability issues.
Additionally, a smart grid enables utilities to gather information for greenhouse gas abatement credits, offer particular rates for EV charging, engage customers with information on energy transfer, and collect EV-specific metre data.
The Global EV charging station smart grid integration system market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
Qualcomm Introduced the Next Generation Powerline Communication Device to Support the Growing Industry Need for Vehicle to Charging Station Smart-Grid Communications.
The PLC device is based on the widely used QCA700X family of devices from Qualcomm Technologies, which have a solid track record in the industry and are widely used in EV on-board charging units and charging stations all over the world.
The industry standard for implementing Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) systems, the HomePlug Green PHY (HPGP) protocol, is compatible with the QCA7006AQ. Coordinating the scheduling and flow of energy to and from the grid and the home, smart-grid integration enables vehicles to authenticate on the network without any hassle using Plug and Charge automated payments for EV charging.
The increased demand for EV charging may be met while reducing the need for peak load power generation and distribution through the deployment of smart-grid charging applications that are supported by the CCS standard.
These applications provide users the freedom to select the best charging periods and extract energy from their EVs as needed. This is the first QCA700X PLC from Qualcomm Technologies that has been built to handle an Ethernet digital interface and is certified to withstand ambient operating temperatures between -40°C and +105°C (AEC-Q100 Automotive Grade 2).
The QCA7006AQ has the ability to offer HomePlug Audio Video (HPAV) streaming with a PHY rate greater than 200 Mbps, giving EV users a wired data connection to the cloud through the charging station.
