Charge and load management

Die SINOS Charging and load management software supports you in the technical charging monitoring of electric vehicles and offers intelligent monitoring and control functions. The charging and load management software communicates with existing charging infrastructures via the OCPP protocol. It controls and monitors all technical charging processes, e.g. B. the load distribution, voltage peaks or charging failures. An interface connection to an existing scheduling or depot management software makes it possible to automatically control operationally relevant preparations of the buses for driving. With existing schedule times, the SINOS charging and load management software ensures that the vehicles are pre-conditioned on time, including heating the passenger compartment before the start of the journey. An intelligent algorithm ensures that the batteries are charged gently and efficiently, taking into account the operating times.

Due to the additional integration of the SINOS telematics platform with live monitoring of the vehicles, real data from ongoing operations is available. Reliable forecasts can be made for the planning and deployment of the buses. The charging and load management software processes this data and can therefore carry out charging planning efficiently and with foresight.

With SINOS you are always “one step ahead!

Features and Overview

Live-Dashboard

The live dashboard shows an overview of all active processes in the charging depot including the current status of the vehicles. All charging processes are displayed live, e.g. ongoing charging processes, completed charging processes or errors that have occurred. The daily current power consumption in the depot including monthly comparison of consumption data is available in the dashboard. Notifications about charging interruptions or faults during charging processes are visualized in real time

The following information is provided in the dashboard:

Vehicles in the depot with current status (current SOC, vehicle parked, vehicle being charged, vehicle fully charged, fault)
Vehicles on the route with current status (current SOC)
Charging station overview (number of all charging stations, status online, offline, error)
Current Electricity consumption depot current day
Electricity Power consumption depot - monthly comparison
Last events completed charging processes, errors

Virtual E-Bus Depot

The virtual E-bus depot shows you all important information at a glance. In this view you get a digital image of your E-bus depot, showing all charging stations, connectors, power infrastructure and parking places. You get detailed information about active and completed charging transactions, charging interruptions and error messages. In addition, the exact location of the vehicle with the assigned parking place in the depot is displayed. By implementing the power infrastructure (transformers), the current power flow with the charging infrastructure is visualized.

The following detailed information is available:

Current status of the vehicles (parked, charging, fully charged, fault)
Current state of charge of the vehicles in real time (SOC in percent)
Range in kilometers with current SOC
Estimated charging time to full charge
Current charging current per charging station in KW/h
Current total power consumption e-bus depot in KW/h
Exact location (parking space) of the vehicles in the depot
Status and description of the charging stations (online, offline, malfunction)
Display of vehicles with description (license plate number or KOM number)

Smart Charging

With intelligent and individually configurable charging profiles, you can control your charging processes efficiently, sustainably and in a way that conserves resources. The reduction of costs and optimization of operating times can only be achieved through intelligent charging management. Taking into account of operating times, time-of-day-dependent price fluctuations and available electricity capacities, special charging profiles can be created. Individual charging profiles for battery-saving charging also increase the life time and performance of the batteries.

Load Management

Another challenge in the conversion to electromobility is the available electricity capacity.Often, the available electricity is not sufficient to charge all electric vehicles at maximum charging capacity.Load management ensures that load limits are not exceeded and that charging capacities are distributed evenly across the available charging infrastructure. This prevents additional costs from being incurred as a result of exceeding the available capacity, or costs are incurred or the power infrastructure is adversely affected by exceeding the available capacity. Intelligent charging control can take into account preferred vehicle charging when operating times are available.
