Load balancing prevents overloading of the electrical grid when charging multiple vehicles at a single location, such as a parking lot or garage. It evenly distributes the available power among the active charging stations, taking into account the charging speed, energy consumption, and available capacity. This way, overloading is avoided, even when several vehicles are charging simultaneously. The process uses smart algorithms to optimize energy consumption, which is especially useful for irregular charging patterns or frequent simultaneous charging of multiple cars.

Load balancing is also useful at home! Because even there, overloading the electrical grid can occur. A clear example: If you use the dishwasher, the dryer, the electric stove, and the deep fryer at the same time, and also charge your electric car, the circuit breaker can trip due to overloading. To prevent this, load balancing is used.
