We've published new guidance on how to make electric vehicle chargers more reliable. With different options out there to help support the growing need for charging stations, what is the best way to manage these large networks? How can different types of charging stations be compatible and smart? Read the details here.
Given the large amount of electric vehicle (EV) charging stations that will be built in the coming years, the European Commission should implement measures to reduce their environmental impact as soon (and as much!) as possible. Measures should tackle the energy and material use of EV chargers and ensure the adoption of future proof smart EV charging standards. Find out about how this can be done in our position paper.
The electrification of road transport is happening – and it is already having a profound impact on the energy system and our cities. As more and more people drive electric, smart charging can ease the integration of the newcomers into the grid.
How can local authorities deploy a future-proof, robust smart charging network? To launch the right public procurements, they need to be aware of developments in regulation and technical standards. Ensuring that cities can take these standardisation developments into account when procuring charging infrastructure is the purpose of this report.
Batteries have a crucial role to play in supporting renewable energy and decarbonising transport. However, they do come at a cost to the environment. In a new ECOS report, we set out our recommendations for the EU Battery Regulation and the European Commission’s Standardisation Request M/579.
