Electric Vehicle Charging Management

Accelerating electric vehicle (EV) adoption through smart charging management.

Itron’s focus is on accelerating electric vehicle (EV) charging deployments—and we are doing exactly that by ensuring that charging assets work in harmony across the grid. This enables end customers to better manage their fuel costs (energy) and utilities to protect the grid and deliver reliable service.

Itron supports EV charging program rollouts for our partners across the major charging segments (fleet, public/semi-public and residential) using software and services to help with infrastructure planning and deployment, and then managing operations to maximize investments. This powerful combination of analytics, optimization and orchestration not only increases operational resiliency and efficiency, but it also ensures the total cost of operations (TCO) is optimized for all project stakeholders.

Smart EV Charging & Energy Management

Through Itron’s real-time analytics application, EV charging operators can plan, operate and manage their EV fleets at the highest performance level and lowest costs, while also integrating charging assets with other distributed energy resources (DERs) such as solar and storage. At the same time, the application can manage constraints at the edge for the utility through grid analytics and control.

The integrated solution helps reduce costs for project stakeholders by maximizing the utilization of existing assets for utilities, managing the energy bill for EV charging operators—and ensuring reliability and resiliency for both.
