"..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.

Smart Charging: Warten für die Energiewende?

Mit dem Hochlauf der Elektromobilität wächst nicht nur die Zahl der Elektrofahrzeuge, sondern auch ihre Bedeutung für das Stromsystem. Millionen von Fahrzeugen werden künftig eine erhebliche zusätzliche Last darstellen, gleichzeitig bieten sie aber auch ein bislang kaum genutztes Flexibilitätspotenzial. Smart Charging und eine flexible Ladepreisgestaltung werden daher zunehmend als Schlüssel betrachtet, um die Integration erneuerbarer <a href="https://www.pv-magazine.de/2026/02/02/smart-charging-warten-fuer-die-energiewende/" class="more-link">[…]</a>

How do we steer EV charging so that it strengthens, rather than strains, the power grid? One of the clearest answers emerging from global leading practice is the use of smart pricing to guide smart EV charging.

Smart Pricing for Smart Charging: Practical Lessons from the EU and China

As electric vehicles become mainstream, governments are beginning to ask a harder question: how do we steer this growing load so that it strengthens, rather than strains, the power grid? One of the clearest answers emerging from global leading practice is the use of smart pricing to guide smart EV c

Consumers benefit from the flexible operation of their EV and heat pump, but system barriers (e.g. the absence of time-varying energy and network prices, aggregator access and smart meters) and the lack of (a range of) attractive retail offerings prevent them from unlocking user and system benefits.

Managed charging of EVs (called 'smart charging' in Europe) could save California $5 - 18 billion on distribution grid upgrades by 2040. Increased electrification (transport, buildings) offsets increased infrastructure costs by -0.2-4.5¢/kWh for all.
