ev.energy VS Chargeprice

Upgrading the power lines isn't the full answer, certainly some upgrades will be required, but the wires are designed for peak demand. EVs have flexibility, and can mostly be charged in non-peak times, drastically reducing the powerline and power station upgrades required. This flexibility has to be managed, and there are many companies working on this. For example: https://ev.energy/. - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

The post title misses the important "without investment and changes in charging habits". Most EVs can already be controlled to set charging preferences to match lower cost, off-peak charging overnight. However, this isn't the full solution as it can create secondary demand peaks. For example, if everyone in one region has an off-peak rate starting at midnight, you will get a step-change in demand at that time.... - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

Ev.energy has a solar charging mode that lets you charge w/ excess solar. I would appreciate it if you used my referral code if you decide to sign up: 278842. Source: 12 months ago

Monta, Electric miles, ev.energy (Pando), EVerest (Pionix) opensource, Ampeco (not cheap): these are just off the top of my head. Source: about 1 year ago

I imagine some of your cost is the need to have an outdoor capable plug. At this point I'd be very tempted to get a charger and get it hardwired (why add a plug that is just another point to fail in the elements). Generally the cables are longer, you can get more data about your charging. I'm getting a rebate from National Grid for charging off hours via ev.energy (in Massachusetts) but it requires certain cars... Source: about 1 year ago

I highly recommend you check out http://chargeprice.app or AirElectric in addition to the PlugShare that everyone has already mentioned. Source: 11 months ago

Use https://chargeprice.app and/or get the AirElectric app. They both work very nicely for me here in Vienna. Source: over 1 year ago

Since you are located in Austria you can use the website chargeprice.app. Source: over 2 years ago

This happens, sadly, if you don't do your homework. If you go with something like Chargemap or ShellRecharge you're going to have a bad awakening. If you want to be able to travel for cheap, go to Chargeprice and check the prices there. Also, look at EnBW for example, they have a good charging network support while keeping the costs at about 49ct/kWh, depends on the country you want to drive through. For the...
