They want to schedule when to charge – or ensure that their car charges automatically when the electricity price is at its lowest. Cause, let’s face it, by charging smart, you can reduce your charging costs considerably. 

 

–Veldig mange kommer hjem fra jobb på ettermiddagen og setter bilen rett til lading. Da ender du opp med å lade fra rundt klokken 16 til klokken 19 – en tidsperiode der strømmen ofte er på sitt aller dyreste.

Sørger du for å følge med på strømprisene og heller lader mens strømmen er på sitt billigste – ofte midt på natten – kan du halvere kostnaden for ladingen.

There are different ways to charge smart. A common misconception is that you need a smart charger to charge smart. The actual charger is located in the car, and most electric cars today have the built-in technology and functionality that makes them smart enough to let us customize when and how we charge them. Your charging box (e.g. an Amina Charger) works to ensure a safe and efficient way to control the flow of energy from the fuse box, through the charging cable and to your car.

Bruk de smarte ladeløsningene i bilen din:

I de fleste nyere elbiler kan du planlegge når du vil at bilen skal hente strøm fra ladeboksen din. Dette gjøres direkte fra bilens dashbord eller fra bilprodusentens app.

Use the smart charging solutions from your electricity provider. 

Many electricity providers offer smart charging solutions that allow you to charge your car automatically when electricity prices are at their lowest. Tibber and Haugaland Kraft are good examples of such providers. They both allow you to connect your car to their apps, regardless of which charger you have at home. Lyse is also launching a smart charging solution in the near future. 

By using the smart charging solutions provided by your car or electricity provider, the only thing you really need is a charging box that ensures safe and efficient charging. Like the Amina charger. Together they’re smart.
