Local Controller for EV Charging Depots
What Is AmpEdge?
AmpEdge, developed by Ampcontrol, is a cutting-edge local controller designed to enhance power management at EV charging sites and microgrids. The device ensures reliable power management on-site, making it indispensable for fleet charging solutions. By operating both independently and in sync with Ampcontrol's cloud infrastructure, AmpEdge provides a robust solution for sites facing challenges like high power demands and poor internet connectivity.
Optimize Charging Sites
Integration with Site Infrastructure
AmpEdge dynamically manages and integrates with a site’s existing infrastructure. It can connect with utility-grade meters and adjust the power distribution based on real-time data from solar panels, battery storage, and building loads. This smart integration allows for charging optimization, increasing efficiency and speed at reduced operational costs. AmpEdge ensures that more chargers can be installed without the need for extensive grid upgrades.
Multiple Systems for Increased Stability
Cloud System vs AmpEdge System
AmpEdge provides stability and efficiency by leveraging both local control systems and cloud-based solutions. In scenarios where internet connectivity is unreliable, AmpEdge continues to manage operations seamlessly, ensuring that EV fleets are always ready and operational. When connected to the cloud, it further enhances capabilities by allowing remote monitoring and advanced analytics, providing fleet operators with comprehensive control and insight into their operations.
