Smappee Launches Smart EV Wall Charger with Solar Integration in U.S.

With many electric vehicle (EV) charging companies integrating solar energy solutions, Smappee is the latest to bring its innovative EV Wall Charger to the United States (U.S.).

Smappee has been a provider of smart EV charging stations that deliver advanced energy management capabilities to optimize charging from solar power while avoiding high utility costs. As for the Smappee EV Wall Charger, it arrives in a compact yet powerful design with a 48A output, a wall-mounted slim profile, and an 18-foot cable length.

The Smappee EV Wall Charger also stands out from the rest through its ability to integrate with residential or commercial solar panel installations by utilizing built-in solar forecasting technology that maximizes charging from available solar production to increase self-consumption and savings.

In addition to its solar optimization capabilities, the EV charger’s AI system avoids charging during high utility rate periods based on user preferences for peak demand levels. As a result, this intelligent load balancing guarantees its users to have a full charge for their EVs according to their scheduled departure time while preventing costly penalties.

Stefan Grosjean, Smappee’s founder and CEO, expressed enthusiasm for its EV charger’s capabilities stating, “With its advanced energy management, this charger empowers consumers and businesses to make smarter, more sustainable choices while enjoying reliable electric mobility.”

This result also allows charging without exceeding capacity limits or requiring costly service upgrades that would usually be needed to add high-power EV charging.

In terms of differences, Smappee offers businesses comprehensive fleet management capabilities through its Infinity monitoring platform, where workers can remotely control and optimize charging across multiple networked stations. For home residences, the charger integrates with Smappee’s Smartup Kit to enable solar tracking, custom energy profiles, and scheduled charging sessions.
