Workplace energy management takes more than plug and charge. Solar, a battery and the building share one connection, with or without chargers, while energy prices and your peak move the bill. Pleevi plans them together, for up to 30% lower energy costs, and drivers still leave with the charge they need.
Energy prices, peak demand charges, solar and battery storage all pull on the same bill, and they change all day.
Time-of-use rates and day-ahead prices change the cost of every hour, and a fixed charging schedule can’t follow them.
With PleeviRe-plans charging and the battery whenever prices move, so the energy comes in the cheapest hours.
In many grids, part of the bill depends on your highest peak, and uncoordinated charging creates exactly those spikes.
With PleeviPlans charging, the battery and flexible loads so the peak stays low, and the Edge holds the limit on site.
Solar is exported for little at midday, while cars charge on expensive grid power at the end of the day.
With PleeviMoves charging and flexible loads into the sunny hours, and stores what is left in a battery if the site has one.
With a flexible connection, your grid operator can limit what the site takes from the grid, through its telecontrol (RTU) under a netflex or fallbackflex contract.
With PleeviThe Pleevi Edge connects to the grid operator’s RTU and keeps every asset within the limit it sends, while the plan carries on.
One plan for the whole site, redone whenever something changes.
Live solar production, second by second, a solar forecast from the weather, and a plan that adjusts as solar conditions change.
Battery cycles planned with the charging sessions, energy shared between the cars and the battery, and peaks shaved before they set the bill.
A notification with the planned charging time, a new departure time when plans change, and an immediate charge when it can’t wait.
Building consumption and smart meters give the site’s baseline, and the Pleevi Edge holds your grid limit on site.
The session starts, and the car is connected.
You get a notification with the planned charging time.
Do nothing. The car charges at the best moment of the day.
Set a new departure time in the app, and the plan is redone at once.
What a site saves depends on how it is set up. Typical results across Pleevi sites:
Workplace · 364 AC charge points
Workplace with solar · 155 AC charge points“As an electric car driver, Pleevi gives me the peace of mind that my car will be fully charged whenever I need to head out, and in the most eco-friendly way possible.”
Bert UytterhaegenTeam Lead Engineering, AAtechnicsAn intro call about your grid connection, your assets and your energy contract, and what you want to get out of them.
Your electrician or one of our installation partners mounts the plug-and-play Edge in your electrical cabinet. It works with chargers, batteries, inverters and meters from all major brands.
Pleevi plans and steers every asset from then on, and Pleevi Studio shows you what the site saves, month by month.
Yes. Where part of the bill depends on your highest peak, smart peak shaving plans ahead and spreads charging, battery use and flexible loads so the peak stays low, and the Edge holds the limit on site. How smart peak shaving works.
Yes. Drivers badge in as usual, or set a departure time in the optional Driver App, and leave with the charge they need. If it can’t wait, the Driver App starts an immediate charge.
No. Pleevi steers chargers, batteries, solar inverters and meters from all major brands, connected on site by the compact Pleevi Edge.
