Impressive real-world numbers of EDF 🇫🇷 (with its smart charging subsidiary DREEV) for charging a fleet of electric waste collection trucks:
10 MWh of charging for 10 trucks, at a cost of minus €129, by collecting otherwise wasted energy and providing grid support
"Dynamic electric vehicle charging incentives induce large shifts in both the timing and location of charging.
Incentives designed to shift charging toward peak solar generation periods result in a 34% increase in midday charging."

Interesting: Finnish energy regulator is requiring DSOs to allocate 1% of their budget to market-based flexibility solutions during the 2024–2027 regulatory period. As a result, smart EV charging has expanded from energy market optimisation to include the local grid (with market-based remuneration).

A project by the TSO and major DSO in Baden-Württemberg aims to investigate the flexibility of EVs without smart meters. Participants with an EV and without a smart meter (i.e. 97% of German households) are wanted:
Yesterday, Finnish EV smart charging service Synergi organised a mass 'smart charging' event in Finland, demonstrating 2.5 MW of controllable capacity.

Around one-third of electric cars in Denmark participate in smart charging services of a range of suppliers, which help to balance the energy system by delivering system services to Energinet, the transmission system operator. That's an impressive figure!

"..flexible and dynamic pricing on the public charging network could also help reduce costs for users. By aligning tariffs with periods of lower wholesale electricity prices, these measures can make public charging more affordable and improve the overall cost competitiveness of EVs."

Die Sonne liefert. ☀️😊 Ich lade meinen #Audi im Eco-Mode und habe #SmartCharging von #Tibber aktiviert. #GridRewards klappt noch nicht, weil das neue #Inexogy #SmartMeter noch nicht im System ist.
Morgen früh brauche ich einen vollen Akku für die Fahrt nach #Gütersloh. Da mein Arbeitgeber den Bezugstarif erstattet (statt der Einspeisevergütung), lade ich ab 16 Uhr zusätzlich mit Netzstrom (und ggf. Speicher), weil der Preis danach weiter fällt.
Ganz schön viele Stellschrauben und Akteure. 😅
Italy may be the first EU country to impose requirements on private charging points in its transposition of the EU REDIII into national law: newly installed private charging points must be able to communicate with smart meters from June 30 onwards.
