Charging in Line with § 14a EnWG

Future-Proof Solution for Charging Parks: § 14a EnWG in Practice

Since the beginning of the year, § 14a of the Energy Industry Act (EnWG) has been in effect, providing grid operators with a tool to reduce output in case of network overload threats. While the supply of household electricity remains unaffected by this regulation, the use of energy-intensive systems such as heat pumps, energy storage units, air conditioning systems or wallboxes may temporarily be limited to 4.2 kW. This throttling has a direct impact on charging park management, requiring operators to implement necessary measures.

Power Reduction Through Throttled Charging

WAGO Application Load Management allows charging parks to be managed under the conditions set by § 14a EnWG. The system adapts to available power while maintaining remote control over charging systems. This makes WAGO Application Load Management an ideal solution for managing charging points when network power is reduced under § 14a EnWG. Charging capacities can be prioritized and allocated strategically, ensuring that critical charging needs are prioritized. Through Modbus, and in the future EEBus, it allows for precise power control between 0 and 100%, with eight configurable digital inputs.

Centralized management of all charging points: WAGO Application Load Management guarantees unified and efficient control, regardless of the charging infrastructure. This allows for smooth centralized control, even in mixed charging park environments. WAGO Application Load Management is compatible with and can be managed across various manufacturers.

Direct Connection to the Grid Operator

WAGO Application Load Management facilitates a direct connection to the grid operator using a comprehensive plug-and-play solution via a customer transfer station (KÜS). This standard setup enhances communication and data exchange between charging points and the grid operator, optimizing monitoring and control for operators.

For those aiming to be independent of § 14a EnWG, integrating PV and battery storage systems offers sustainable alternatives for future charging management.
