The AGL SA Smart Charging Trial will install 18 smart EV chargers in Wilson Parking Adelaide CBD off street carparks. Plus as part of an all-inclusive EV lease and smart charging commercial fleet business model, a further 4 chargers will be installed at commercial fleet employee’s homes and up to 6 smart chargers at commercial fleet business premises, including Centacare and Uniting Communities, to support 6 electric fleet vehicles.

Using various supporting systems trial data will be collected to understand the charging behaviour of commercial fleet drivers. The trial will then introduce charger control and dynamic factors including price and event signals designed to alter user charging behaviour.

This understanding should enable development of new viable commercial propositions that will increase adoption of EVs and smart charging practices in South Australia.
