This document is a technical report detailing the CONNECT project, an initiative aimed at integrating renewable energy sources with electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure. The project involves a consortium of 19 partners from five EU countries and focuses on addressing the challenges of increased electricity demand due to transport electrification. The report outlines the project's components, including 1,500 solar panels, a smart energy management platform, and various charging solutions. It describes how the ecosystem optimizes energy flow by utilizing solar power, stationary battery storage, and grid connections to reduce peak electricity demand by 71 percent. The platform enables dynamic control of charging speeds, allowing for the installation of ten times more charging points while maintaining grid stability. The report emphasizes the replicability of the ecosystem in different contexts and the interoperability of various equipment manufacturers, showcasing a scalable solution for sustainable mobility.
