Optimizing EV Charging for Operators


Case Study: Optimizing EV Charging for
Facility Operators

EV sales are expected to surpass internal-combustion-engine vehicle sales by 2030, taking 51% of the market (Automotive News), and zero-emission vehicles are now a priority for major manufacturers (New York Times). Parking facilities play an increasingly important role as EV fueling stations, with potential to alleviate range anxiety and accelerate EV adoption for fleets and individual vehicle owners. However, parking operators have limited charging equipment and little visibility into how EV charging stations are utilized across charging platforms and providers.

To address this issue and improve EV charging space management and related operations, the City Tech and partners built a connected, real-time occupancy monitoring system. Leveraging Smarking’s insights, the team compiled data from Chargepoint EV chargers outfitted with Bosch sensors in Millennium Garages into a single dashboard where facilities operators could see visualizations of real-time use of their chargers in a single view for the first time. 

Drawing on the data analytics, facility operators can now make informed decisions on operations and pricing across multiple providers and grow the market for EV charging equipment and services. These efforts also set the foundation for a seamless charging experience for customers such as customer-friendly communication about EV spot availability, advanced booking and integrated payment, and a consistent experience across EV parking stations.
