AHEAD

AI-informed Holistic EVs Integration

Appoaches for Distribution Grids

Innovations in smart charging for optimal grid harmony and user convenience in rural and urban areas.

About AHEAD

Driving EV Integration with AI

AI-informed Holistic Electric Vehicles Integration Approaches for Distribution Grids – AHEAD – will create a simulation environment capable of predicting the most convenient locations to place EV charging stations while optimising both the usage of the power grid resources and that of the charging stations in urban and rural areas.

Grid reliability

By placing chargers where the grid can support them, AHEAD will design and test innovative smart charging algorithms to minimise the impact of EV charging pools on the network while ensuring benefits for EV users.

User-centered approach

By placing the chargers where people need them, AHEAD will study how to minimise the impact of smart charging on user experience that will test and enhance cybersecurity.

AHEAD Demo Sites

The AHEAD smart charging algorithms will be tested in three regional demonstration sites, dedicated to assessing the technical and economic feasibility of smart charging light and heavy-duty EVs, and boats.

Covering Nordic, Southern Europe, and Western Europe – these demonstrations – covering both urban and rural areas – will test 12 different use cases.
