EV charging

A smart home charger with updated features

One new feature is the OCPP (Open Charge Point Protocol) – a standardized interface for the management of charging stations. It allows the creation of charging reports as well as effective load management. Furthermore, the Wattpilot is now shown in Fronius Solar.web. This gives users a uniform visualization and the option to troubleshoot directly in the free monitoring tool. In addition, the Wattpilot has been given a new look, with the new housing providing an IP rating of IP55. What’s more, the WLAN range has been improved, increasing flexibility at the installation site.

A Dynamic Load Balancing feature will also become available for all Wattpilot charging stations at the end of the year. This ensures that the power is optimally distributed between up to three EVs, resulting in reliable charging without the need to invest in a large and expensive connection infrastructure. The energy required is dynamically distributed and controlled among the vehicles being charged. The Wattpilot can already detect when the household connected load is exceeded and reacts to this by giving priority to the loads in the house (heat pump, Ohmpilot, cooker, etc.). (mfo)
