However, it can be used to measure any part of a mains circuit or PV system such as battery storage or solar panels. It is essentially a measuring tool, which is constantly measuring the flow of current in kW\u2019s. This data then allows users to see real-time energy usage and the flow of current to a particular device in the home, through software such as the myenergi app.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"center lightgreen bold\"><a href=\"#d\" id=\"#d\" target=\"_self\" class=\"mt-3 mr-2 link !text-greydark \"><span>D<\/span><\/a><\/h2>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Direct Current (DC)<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 An electric current which is one-directional meaning the voltage level is constantly the same.

This mode is a mixture of both green energy and energy imported from the grid. Eco mode is designed to minimise the use of grid power and can revert to charging using solely green energy. The charging power is continuously adjusted in response to changes in self generation or power being used elsewhere in the home. For example; EV\u2019s require a minimum charge rate of 1.4kW, if surplus energy drops below 1.4kW, Eco mode will trickle feed energy from the grid to at least charge the EV at 1.4kW. When the property\u2019s surplus energy is higher 1.4kW, Eco mode will only use the green energy generated.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{\"335559740\":276}\">\u00a0<\/span><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Eco+ charging mode<\/span><\/b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u00a0\u2013 Another charging mode on the zappi. This mode ultimately tells zappi to charge using only the surplus self-generated green energy from your solar PV or wind systems. Eco-plus mode means the charge power is continuously adjusted in response to changes in self generation or power consumption elsewhere in the home. Your EV charging will pause when your self- generation drops below 1.4kW, continuing only when more than 1.4kW or more energy is being generated.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Electric Vehicle (EV)<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 An EV stands for Electric Vehicle. An electric vehicle is a vehicle that runs solely on electricity which is stored in lithium-ion batteries. EV\u2019s are regularly charged up using a charger such as the zappi. You could say an EV is a laptop on wheels!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Electric Vehicle Homecharge Scheme (EVHS)<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 The Electric Vehicle Homecharge Scheme governed by OZEV (Office for Zero Emission Vehicles) provides grant funding of up to \u00a3350 at residential properties across the UK. Each household can claim for a maximum of two chargers, equalling \u00a3700 in total funding. (This grant is due to end on 31st March 2022)<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"center lightgreen bold\"><a href=\"#f\" id=\"#f\" target=\"_self\" class=\"mt-3 mr-2 link !text-greydark \"><span>F<\/span><\/a><\/h2>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Fast Charging<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 A fast charge is the next step up from slow charging, not to be confused with Rapid charging. Fast chargers typically have an output of either 7kW or 22kW, with 7kW being the most common charger for the home and workplace. Note, it is only possible to charge at 22kWh if your building has a three-phase supply. Therefore, most residential chargers tend to be 7kWh.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fast charge mode<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 The third zappi charge mode. In this mode, the vehicle will be charged at maximum power. This power can come from a renewable energy source, or simply straight from the grid. If you don\u2019t have solar panels or wind generation, zappi will charge just like any ordinary Mode 3, plug-and-go charge point.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle (FCEV)<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 These vehicles are powered by hydrogen. They use a system that is like an electric vehicle, however energy is stored as hydrogen and is converted to electricity by the fuel cell. FCEV\u2019s do not produce emissions; they emit warm air and water only. They tend to be less common and extremely expensive when compared to electric vehicles, and therefore not readily available to the mass market.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Full Hybrid (also known as Self-Charging Hybrid)<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Regarded as a low emission vehicle opposed to a zero emission vehicle, the car runs solely on either it\u2019s battery (usually smaller than EV\u2019s) or ICE, though most commonly they can run simultaneously together, constantly switching dependent on speed. Full hybrid vehicles will be banned from 2035 as they still emit carbon into the atmosphere in order to self-charge the battery and therefore not regarded as good for the environment.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"center lightgreen bold\"><a href=\"#g\" id=\"#g\" target=\"_self\" class=\"mt-3 mr-2 link !text-greydark \"><span>G<\/span><\/a><\/h2>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Green Energy\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013 Green energy is defined as power generated from natural sources, such as wind, water, and sunlight.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Granny Charger \u2013\u00a0<\/strong>Is the slowest and eldest form of electric vehicle charger, hence the name. Granny charging simply takes power from a typical 13amp 3 pin socket in the home and charges at the rate of 2.3kW. Charging through a mains socket is 3 x slower than using a fast charger. Many EV\u2019s provide a granny charger as a means of emergency charging, much like an emergency wheel.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Grid Power\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013 This is a term used to describe electricity pulled from the grid i.e. pylons. The grid is simply an interconnected network that delivers electricity from producers to consumers, such as UK\u2019s National Grid.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"center lightgreen bold\"><a href=\"#h\" id=\"#h\" target=\"_self\" class=\"mt-3 mr-2 link !text-greydark \"><span>H<\/span><\/a><\/h2>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Hybrid vehicle<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Hybrid\u2019 is the term used to describe any car which has both a battery and an internal combustion engine (ICE).

A kilowatt is simply 1,000 watts and is a measurement of electricity, particularly in relation to the power drawn by an electric appliance, or in this case EV. If you think of a kW in terms of the size of a petrol\/diesel fuel tank, the bigger the tank the more fuel the car can take. In relative terms, the higher the kW of a battery, the more electricity it can store.<\/p>\n<p><strong>kWh<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Stands for a kilowatt-hour and refers to the energy used. If you think of this in terms of food, we eat calories to give us energy, and the energy used is how many calories burned which can also be quantified as energy. So, an electric vehicle battery is charged using kW and the amount of energy stored in the battery can be referred to as kWh\u2019s.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"center lightgreen bold\"><a href=\"#l\" id=\"#l\" target=\"_self\" class=\"mt-3 mr-2 link !text-greydark \"><span>L<\/span><\/a><\/h2>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Load balancing<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Also commonly referred to as \u2018Dynamic Load Balancing\u2019 this is a software function that monitors the properties electricity usage and adjusts the amount of electricity going to your devices this protects the properties main fuse from being overloaded by your myenergi devices and gives priority to the property.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"center lightgreen bold\"><a href=\"#m\" id=\"#m\" target=\"_self\" class=\"mt-3 mr-2 link !text-greydark \"><span>M<\/span><\/a><\/h2>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Microgeneration<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 is the energy generated through solar or renewable energy sources on a smaller scale, such as a typical residential property, with a solar array on the roof.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mild Hybrid Electric Vehicle (MHEV)<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 This type of EV cannot run solely on battery power.

Usually, this EV will run from the battery until the charge is low, the car will then automatically switch to using fuel from the ICE.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Public charge points\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013 Most EV drivers tend to opt for a home chargepoint for most of their charging, however for those who don\u2019t have off road parking, or who need to top up their charge on a long-distance journey, there are numerous networks of public charge point all around the UK. There are typically two types of public charge point: Fast and Rapid. Rapid chargers are often referred to as DC chargers and these are the quickest to charge, usually around 30-40 minutes for a full charge. ZapMap is the UK\u2019s leading app and digital platform for locating UK public charge points.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"center lightgreen bold\"><a href=\"#r\" id=\"#r\" target=\"_self\" class=\"mt-3 mr-2 link !text-greydark \"><span>R<\/span><\/a><\/h2>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Range-extended Electric Vehicle (REEV)\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013 A REEV, or Extended-Range Electric Vehicle (E-REV) is like a Plug-in hybrid. However, rather than the car automatically switching to fuel from the ICE when the battery gets low, with a REEV, once the battery reaches a certain level, a smaller ICE powers a generator that supplies the electric motor further extending the vehicles range.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rapid charging<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 A rapid charge is typically anywhere between 50kW and 350kW output, compared with Fast which are between 7kWh \u2013 22kWh. Rapid chargers are the fastest way to charge your EV, especially when on the move. These are usually found at service stations and charge parks along motorways in the UK. To use a rapid charger, it requires a card payment either on the machine itself or via the relevant app, and costs vary dependent on the network and location. Tesla offer ultra-rapid charging which is usually between 150-350kW of charge.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Regenerative breaking \u2013\u00a0<\/strong>On normal cars, braking wastes energy. When you brake friction is created when the brake pads come into contact with the brake discs producing kinetic energy. Regenerative breaking uses the energy generated from breaking and turns it into electricity to recharge your car\u2019s battery.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"center lightgreen bold\"><a href=\"#s\" id=\"#s\" target=\"_self\" class=\"mt-3 mr-2 link !text-greydark \"><span>S<\/span><\/a><\/h2>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Single Phase charger \u2013<\/strong>\u00a0When it comes to electricity, phase refers to the power supply. A single-phase charger can charge your EV at a maximum of 7.4kW.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Slow Charging \u2013<\/strong>\u00a0A slow charge typically has an output between 2.3kW and 3.5kW. 3.5kW chargers are becoming less common due to the up take in 7kWh fast chargers.

So, if you have left over battery in your car when you get home from work in the evening, you can plug your car in and send this energy back to the grid to help support the demand on the grid during this time. By doing so, this helps to maximise the use of renewable energy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Vehicle to Home (V2H)\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013 Vehicle to home allows you to utilise your car\u2019s battery like that of a home battery storage system, allowing two-way charging. This means, similar to V2G, if you had excess power left in your battery when you get home from work you can plug your car in and divert this energy elsewhere \u2013 the only difference being rather than sending it back to the grid, V2H allows you to divert this energy to your home.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"center lightgreen bold\"><a href=\"#w\" id=\"#w\" target=\"_self\" class=\"mt-3 mr-2 link !text-greydark \"><span>W<\/span><\/a><\/h2>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Workplace Charging Scheme (WCS) \u2013<\/strong>\u00a0The\u00a0Workplace Charging Scheme\u00a0is a voucher-based scheme that provides support towards the up-front costs of the purchase and installation of electric vehicle chargepoints, for eligible businesses, charities, and public sector organisations.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"center lightgreen bold\"><a href=\"#z\" id=\"#z\" target=\"_self\" class=\"mt-3 mr-2 link !text-greydark \"><span>Z<\/span><\/a><\/h2>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>zappi<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 The world\u2019s first solar compatible <a href=\"https:\/\/myenergi.com\/zappi-ev-charger\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">EV charger<\/a>, made in Britain. zappi is a smart charger and comes in both single-phase 7kW and three-phase 11-22kW versions, tethered or untethered.<\/p>\n\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","guides-category":[32,37],"class_list":["post-34025","guides","type-guides","status-publish","hentry","guides-category-evs-charging-guides","guides-category-frequently-asked"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.myenergi.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/guides\/34025","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.myenergi.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/guides"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.myenergi.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/guides"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.myenergi.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/guides\/34025\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.myenergi.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=34025"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"guides-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.myenergi.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/guides-category?post=34025"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
