Sense Reply has supported a leading company in electric mobility, implementing an IoT platform for intelligent vehicle charging, with the aim of simplifying management and reducing the costs of diversified assets.
The challenge
Intelligently integrate, monitor and manage different models of charging units to allow the use of services to customers of all types and on a large scale.
With increased awareness of environmental issues, decarbonisation needs and technological progress, the mobility sector is changing rapidly. We are seeing significant growth in electric vehicles, charging systems, the electrification of public transport and private fleets.
Therefore, ensuring widespread charging infrastructures that are highly integrated with distribution networks, smart grids and micro grids, is essential. To manage the growing complexity of these devices in the IT field, one of the main operators of the new mobility has expressed the need to develop open platforms related to charging services, which would allow multiple entities, public or private, to integrate to offer services or to use them.
To effectively respond to the request, Sense Reply, specialised in the field of mobility transformation, has developed a single IoT platform, based on the proprietary RIPA accelerator (Reply IoT Platform Accelerator), which has made it possible to manage and integrate different charging devices by brand and model.
Sense Reply has thus created a flexible and scalable solution, also ensuring maximum interoperability. The platform meets the needs of both Charging Point Operators (CPO) and e-Mobility Service Providers (eMPs).
The IoT platform allowed Sense Reply's customer to overcome the challenge of managing and integrating different EV charging stations on a global scale, ensuring a safe, reliable and advanced experience. The operator can count on the continuous and efficient operation of the columns, optimising maintenance and monitoring operations.
