Power management

Every charger as fast as the connection allows. Never faster.

Power management shares your site's grid connection across all active chargers, uses your own solar first and keeps total draw under the limit, with nobody watching.

Move the sliders, watch the power move

Same site, three ways to share it. Change the connection, the building, the sun or the number of cars and see what each mode does.

Shares what the connection has left after the building equally across every plugged-in car. Solar is ignored.

A simplified model: identical 11 kW AC chargers, every car asking for full power. The real optimizer also plans around electricity prices, departure times and battery state.

What it does

Four jobs, one connection

Dynamic load balancing

Splits the power left after the building equally across every active charger, and re-splits the moment a car arrives or leaves.

Solar balancing

Sends your own solar to the cars first. Choose solar only, or smart solar that tops up from the grid when the sun is not enough.

Peak shaving

Keeps total site draw under the connection limit, so a full depot never trips the main fuse or sets a new peak you pay for.

Planned around departures

RiDERgy talks to the vehicles as well as the chargers, so power goes to the cars that need it by morning, not just to whoever plugged in first.

How it works

From plug to plan in three steps

  1. Connect

    RiDERgy links to your chargers over OCPP or API and to the vehicles through mobility data. No specific charger brand needed.

  2. Set the limits

    Tell it the grid connection limit and add a building meter, so it can see what the rest of the site is drawing.

  3. Let it plan

    The plan is recalculated every quarter hour against load, solar, prices and when each vehicle has to leave.

Know what the building draws

Power management is only as good as the reading it works from. A building meter tells the system how much of the connection is already in use, so the chargers get exactly the remainder. Ask us which meters fit your site.

Questions

Power management, answered

Which chargers does it work with?

RiDERgy is hardware-agnostic. It connects to the majority of chargers over OCPP or via API, so you do not have to replace what you already have.

Do I need solar?

No. Without solar, power management is load balancing and peak shaving. If you add solar later, the same setup starts using it.

Can it replace our current load management?

Usually, yes. We generally replace existing load management, and can also work alongside it to combine some of our other energy management features.

Is the simulator what the product does?

It is a simplified model to show the idea. The product plans per vehicle, around prices, departures and battery state, not just an equal split.

What does it cost?

A one-off set-up fee that depends on the project, then a monthly fee per vehicle. Book a demo and we will price it on your site.
