ELM MicroGrid is excited to introduce our intelligent charge management feature available on all CMG and MG series battery energy storage systems. ELM EV integrates the ELM BESS systems with industry leading EV chargers to help optimize energy usage costs while increasing charging availability and reliability.
Power Smarter EV Charging
As EV adoption grows, charging demand is putting increased strain on the grid—driving higher costs and new challenges. ELM MicroGrid offers a smarter solution by storing energy off-peak and deploying it when demand is highest. This helps reduce peak charges, stabilize power delivery, and lower overall energy costs—ensuring reliable, efficient EV charging with greater control and predictability.
industry applications
This solution will prove valuable any company looking to adapt to the growing electric vehicle market while providing them with all the resiliency and cost saving features within ELM MicroGrid’s cutting-edge product line. Markets served include:
energy management
Knowledge is Power
With increasing EV adoption by commercial and industrial businesses, fleet managers need to ensure charging capacity and manage costs during peak demand for charging their EVs. ELM MicroGrid is here to help with a range of BESS (Battery Energy Storage Systems) solutions to provide resilient EV charging capacity and management tools to control electricity costs. Products include 125 kW, 250 kW, 500 kW, and 1 MW units, which can all be paralleled to provide the optimum solution and integrate seamlessly with existing charging infrastructure from a variety of providers.
Controlling it all is ELM MicroGrid’s intelligent ELM FieldSight controller. FieldSight can integrate with renewable power assets, grid interconnection and EV chargers to ensure demand does not exceed capabilities, and optimizes charging, all while keeping utility costs under control.
EV BENEFITS
Intelligent EV Charger Management:
An intelligent Energy Management System (EMS) can manage the charging capacity of the EV chargers to never exceed capacity.
Charge Smart, Save Money
FieldSight can manage energy storage to shift charging to off-peak hours when electricity prices are lower. This flexibility allows EV owners to take advantage of time-of-use tariffs, optimizing charging costs and minimizing grid congestion during peak periods.
Fast Charging Infrastructure Support
Rapid charging capability means getting your vehicles back on the road and doing what you do best: serving customers. With ELM MicroGrid, energy is stored in batteries during periods of low demand and delivered quickly when fast charging demands rise, meaning shorter turnaround times and lower electricity costs.
Providing Grid Resilience and Backup Power
Energy storage systems can serve as backup power during grid outages, ensuring uninterrupted charging for EVs as well as resiellency support for your business. In emergencies or natural disasters, EVs equipped with bidirectional capabilities can even be utilized to help extend the run time of the ELM MG BESS System.
Working with Existing Renewables
Energy storage can smooth out the intermittent nature of renewable energy generation by storing excess energy during low-demand periods and delivering it during peak hours. By mitigating grid imbalances, energy storage enables efficient EV charging while reducing strain on the grid during high-demand periods.
FAQ's
We Have the Answers...
Even a small EV fleet can place enormous strain on a building’s electrical capacity. A microgrid and controller, tied to existing utility lines, renewable energy generation, batteries or all three, ensures that EVs get charged quickly, reliably and at reasonable cost to the property owner.
No, we are incorporating our microgrid and FieldSight technologies to interface with EV chargers on the market right now. Along with our charging partners, we’re leveraging our unique position as a market leader as a provider of industrial, commercial and residential microgrid solutions to help fleet managers and businesses manage the load that comes with large-scale EV charging.
