Just like users can use the phone for anything from texting to navigating, use cases for Home Energy Management Systems (HEMS) also vary widely: users can use an HEMS to simply gain insights into power consumption and generation, or go as far as monetizing the flexibility of a household. GridX looks at the use cases that lie between these two extremes, what circumstances give rise to them, and how they benefit consumers. common use cases A closer look at the regulatory an...

Every engineer sets out to design for maximum performance of their system, power supply, or any other product they are working on. But what does designing for performance mean? In terms of power solutions, this may refer to the typical tradeoff of size, weight, and power (SWaP) factors, perhaps even including cost (SWaP-C) factors. Designing for energy performance (typically measured in terms of efficiency metrics) implies a focus on optimizing the performance of power supply energy consumption...

High Power Charging (HPC) stations have a charging power of at least 100 kW. Existing grid infrastructure, however, often provides significantly less capacity and upgrades are extremely costly. Luckily, most cars only charge with maximum power for a brief period. Batteries leverage this and enable the use of HPC on existing infrastructure. Cars briefly charge with full power As any EV driver will tell the user, they can charge to some 60-80% in around half an hour, but getting to 1...
