ClipperCreek, Inc. launched its ETL listed utility smart grid connected charging station, the CS-40-SG2. The CS-40-SG2 is the first-of-a-kind charging station includes an embedded revenue grade sub-meter and a variety of smart grid communications options.
The CS-40-SG2 charging station is a result of the joint efforts of ClipperCreek and Itron. Combining Itron’s advanced metrology and flexible smart grid communications with ClipperCreek’s tough and trusted charging stations has resulted in a product utility customers can count on. Utilities will now have full visibility and control of electric vehicle charging directly through their smart grid. These units are being deployed in various pilot projects starting this month. This solution will extend a utility’s energy management intelligence directly to the charging station through multiple wireless communication interfaces.
