Ampure, formerly Webasto Charging Solutions, is poised to transform the landscape of electric vehicle (EV) infrastructure with its pioneering insights into smart load management.
With a steadfast commitment to innovation, Ampure aims to redefine the standards of EV infrastructure by introducing innovative load management techniques that maximize efficiency and economic benefits.
Bringing Load Management to the Industry
Building upon its commitment to innovation, the company emphasizes the pivotal role of dynamic load management within EV infrastructure. By optimizing power and load distribution in real-time, factors such as surplus charging, grid peak times, and weather conditions are seamlessly integrated into the charging process, reducing strain on the power grid while enhancing the user experience.
Additionally, Ampure underscores the importance of integrating Distributed Energy Resources (DER) grids into the EV infrastructure. Leveraging locally available capacity further enhances energy sustainability, creating a more efficient and cost-effective ecosystem.
"Innovations in EV infrastructure are at the heart of our vision for the future," says Michael Schoenberger, chief technology officer of Ampure. "We are continuously exploring opportunities to enhance the accessibility and sustainability of EV charging solutions. As part of our commitment, we aim to develop solutions that reduce installation costs and accelerate the convenience for EV owners. Our focus remains on leveraging advancements such as cloud-based load-balancing networks to drive widespread adoption and contribute to a greener, more sustainable transportation landscape.”
In addition to these advancements, Ampure stands out as the sole digital solutions provider for Load Management with its fail-safe solution known as Master Fail Safe.
The fault-tolerant solution ensures there is no single point of failure within the system. If the master as main controller fails, another charger in the cluster seamlessly takes over as the new local controller, all without requiring operator intervention.
Importantly, charging operations continue uninterrupted during the failover process, albeit at a reduced power of six Amps per charger, until the new local controller is online. Once online, charging resumes to the maximum power budget.
Furthermore, the Central System Management Software (CSMS) is promptly notified of any failures, ensuring operators are informed of any charger malfunctions.
Ampure Continuing to Innovate
As the world transitions toward electric mobility, Ampure remains at the forefront of innovation, empowering EV drivers, communities, and businesses to embrace the economic advantages of EV ecosystems.
The company is committed to shaping a future where electric vehicles drive environmental stewardship and economic prosperity through education, collaboration, and cutting-edge technologies.
