The aim of the project is to promote the electrification of mobility through the installation of electric vehicle charging infrastructures, making electric mobility and the decarbonisation of transport a success, thus reducing the associated CO2 emissions and improving the environmental impact.
A charging point will be installed outside the Córdoba Logistics Park for fast charging (53 kW + 43.5kW) with the aim of making it available to the general public.
On the other hand, three recharging points for semi-fast charging (2×22 kW) will be installed, in addition to two recharging points for semi-fast charging (2x11kW) for non-industrial vehicles located inside the Logistics Area.
A total of 6 charging points will be installed, of which 5 will be semi-fast charging and 1 will be fast charging. The characteristics of both equipment are detailed below:
The loading point will be prepared by means of the OCPP&XML communications protocol for intelligent management by software. The internal management platform will be used to manage, control, modify and verify the load. From the cloud it will be possible to visualise a large amount of information to know 100% of the state of charge.
In addition to facilitating the on/off processes, it allows the energy used by the charger in a given period of time to be monitored at all times. Thanks to this, we can know the energy used to recharge the electric vehicle and its cost, for subsequent billing.
The fast charger is compatible with all standards for charging all types of vehicles. It is equipped with 4G communications and connector locking.
Monitoring system: Energy Sequence
The photovoltaic installation will be monitored through the Energy Sequence platform, being able to configure alerts and detect behavioural profiles.
This application shows the main parameters of the photovoltaic plant and their interaction with the rest of the installation’s energy consumption, cross-referenced with the existing environmental conditions.
In addition to the visualisation by the Energy Sequence platform, the inverters and the monitoring equipment allow the production of the installation to be tracked via the ‘ShinePhone’ application.
Environmental Factors
One of the factors to achieve the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions into the atmosphere is based on the substitution of the current means of transport whose energy in most cases is obtained from fossil fuels by a transport network in which energy consumption can come from renewable sources.
To this end, existing infrastructures must be adapted as far as possible to facilitate the transition from a transport system based on fossil fuels to a transport system based on renewable energies.
With this type of installation, we not only improve the infrastructure for these vehicles, reducing carbon dioxide emissions, but also drive the crucial development of technologies needed to tackle climate change.
An important step towards a more sustainable future!
