FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything about truck charging and depot charging for your commercial vehicle fleet.

What makes truck charging different from regular EV charging?

Trucks have larger batteries (often 300-600 kWh) and require higher charging power. Depot charging requires intelligent load management to avoid overloading grid connections and optimize energy costs.

How does load management work at the depot?

The system knows your vehicles' departure times and prioritizes accordingly. Vehicles with early departures charge first. Available power is dynamically distributed to charge all vehicles on time.

Can I import departure times from my TMS?

Yes, OB7 integrates with common Transport Management Systems (TMS). Departure times and route data are automatically synchronized to create optimal charging schedules.

How are energy costs optimized?

The system uses favorable tariff times and avoids peak loads. By intelligently distributing charging sessions overnight, you can significantly reduce energy costs.

What charging power levels are supported?

OB7 supports all common power levels – from 22 kW AC to 150 kW DC to Megawatt Charging (MCS) for the next generation of electric trucks.

How is billing handled for fleet vehicles?

Fleet vehicles are automatically recognized and charging sessions assigned to the fleet. You receive consolidated billing per vehicle, driver, or cost center.
