Ready for any fleet.
elephi integrates seamlessly into existing systems and scales with your operations – from a single depot to a complex multi-site fleet.
Whether it’s route planning, energy optimisation or grid-friendly charging: elephi adapts dynamically, grows with your needs and keeps your operation future-ready.
Driving range and vehicle availability are critical success factors in electric mobility. Operating an electric fleet efficiently requires a centralised charging management system that connects vehicles, charging stations and energy infrastructure.
As more electric vehicles (EVs) are deployed at a single depot, grid capacity quickly becomes a limiting factor. A smart charging and fleet management system helps businesses manage limited electrical power, avoid peak loads and ensure reliable vehicle readiness.
With intelligent charging control, companies can operate multiple EVs at one location cost-efficiently, grid-friendly and without infrastructure overload.
Smart charging, also known as intelligent EV charging, is a technology that automatically controls when and how electric vehicles are charged.
It connects EVs, charging stations, energy providers and users through intelligent software. Charging processes are dynamically adjusted based on factors such as:
This makes EV charging more efficient, cost-effective and grid-friendly. Smart charging is a key technology for scaling electric fleets and supporting the transition to a low-carbon, emission-free transport system.
Load management (also called EV load balancing) ensures that available electrical power is distributed efficiently across multiple charging points.
Instead of charging all vehicles at full power at the same time, load management systems allocate electricity based on real-time demand and grid limits. Electric vehicles are charged when sufficient grid capacity is available.
Benefits of load management include:
Load management is essential for operating large EV fleets in depots, logistics hubs and commercial sites.
OpenADR (Open Automated Demand Response) is an open, standardised communication protocol used to manage and stabilise electricity grids.
It enables automated communication between utilities, grid operators and energy consumers. Through OpenADR, energy demand can be adjusted in real time, helping to balance supply and demand in smart grids.
For electric vehicle charging, OpenADR allows charging systems to:
OpenADR plays an important role in building a flexible, resilient and low-carbon energy system.
An RFID charging card is used to identify and authenticate drivers at a charging station. RFID stands for Radio Frequency Identification.
By holding the RFID card in front of the charging point, users unlock the charger and start an electric vehicle (EV) charging session. The card links the charging process to a specific user, vehicle or fleet account, enabling:
RFID cards are widely used in public charging networks and commercial EV fleet depots where access management and usage tracking are essential.
Plug & Charge is an advanced EV charging technology that enables automatic authentication between the electric vehicle and the charging station.
Instead of using an RFID card or mobile app, the vehicle identifies itself directly when plugged in. The charging session starts automatically, and billing is handled in the background through a secure digital certificate.
Benefits of Plug & Charge include:
Plug & Charge is based on the ISO 15118 standard and is considered a key technology for the future of smart and user-friendly EV charging.
Bidirectional charging means that electricity can flow in two directions between an electric vehicle and the power system.
A vehicle with bidirectional charging capability can not only draw power from the grid to charge its battery but also feed stored energy back to external devices or the electricity grid.
This enables new use cases such as:
Bidirectional charging helps make electric vehicles an active part of the energy system and supports a more flexible, renewable and low-carbon power grid.
Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) is a specific form of bidirectional charging where electric vehicles send electricity back into the public power grid.
With V2G technology, energy stored in EV batteries can be supplied to the grid during times of high demand or limited generation. When the grid is under stress, V2G can help balance supply and demand and improve grid stability.
Key benefits of V2G include:
V2G turns electric vehicles into mobile energy storage units, playing an important role in the transition to a smart, decarbonised energy future.
