Smart EV charging is a type of charging that uses devices such as your phone and smart meter to communicate with the grid to optimise the charging process. The charging process is optimised based on things like the time of the day, electricity prices, and your EV battery percentage. Energia offers a range of EV tariffs, products and services.

How does EV smart charging work?
Smart EV charging is a system in which an electric vehicle and a charger share a data connection, and the charger shares a data connection with a charging operator and an energy utility. When an electric vehicle is plugged in, the charger automatically transmits important data to the charging operator and energy utility, in order to optimise charging. Smart charging allows users to monitor, control and manage the charging process and energy usage remotely.
