Smart Metering for EV Charging in Housing Societies
More residents are putting EV chargers in shared parking, and the electricity often ends up on the society's common-area bill. PES smart meters give every charging point its own prepaid account, so the resident who charges is the one who pays.
The Challenges You Face
- EV charging runs off the common-area supply, so every resident pays for one resident's car
- Manual readings and cash settlements between the society and EV owners lead to disputes
- Nobody knows how much each charger actually used
- Societies hold back on approving new chargers because there's no fair way to bill them
- Chargers left running with no limit can overload the parking circuit
How PES Solves It
- A separate smart meter on each charging point, so its usage is measured apart from common areas
- Prepaid billing: EV owners recharge from the same PES app they already use for their flat
- Supply cuts off automatically when the balance runs out, so nobody has to chase dues
- The society management dashboard shows how much each charging point uses
- Single-phase meters for standard home chargers, three-phase for higher-capacity chargers
- Supply, installation, billing platform and long-term support from one vendor
