For fleets & depots

More vehicles, same connection.

Charge the whole fleet on the depot’s connection, AC and DC together, with access by RFID tag, remote control of every charger and every session on record.

Load balancing

Every vehicle charged, the breaker never trips.

The balancer’s first rule is that the depot never goes over its connection, not even for seconds. Utilisation comes second, and it is still pushed as high as it safely goes.

  • AC and DC on one siteAC chargers balanced in amps, DC chargers by the power they report.
  • Admission at 0 AThe next vehicle waits until there is room to charge properly.
  • Fails safeNo meter reading for 30 seconds and the balancer drops to its safety plan.

Running the depot

Control without walking the yard.

Access by RFID tag

A tag per vehicle or per driver; private chargers accept nothing else.

Live status

Every connector’s state as it changes; a faulted charger stands out at once.

Remote control

Start, stop, unlock and change availability from the console.

Reports

Energy by period and station, plus ESG data for sustainability reporting.

Mixed brands

Any charger that speaks OCPP 1.6J or 2.0.1, side by side.

Your fleet systems

Sessions and charger status through the API, with session updates by webhook.

Questions

Depot charging, answered.

Can AC and DC chargers share one connection?

Yes. They are balanced together: AC in amps, DC by the power the charger reports.

Do we need a site meter?

No. Static mode shares a fixed limit you set. Add a meter later for dynamic mode, which uses whatever the rest of the site isn’t using.

What if the site meter stops reporting?

After 30 seconds without a reading, the balancer drops to its safety plan instead of guessing.

Can our fleet software get the session data?

Yes, through the ChargeIT API with the scopes enabled for your organisation, and by webhook as sessions change.
