Delta Receives U.S. Department of Energy
Funding to Streamline Development of EV
Charging Infrastructure(2012/1/3)
Taipei, Taiwan, January 3rd, 2012, Delta today
announced that the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)
has awarded, Delta Products Corporation in Fremont,
California, nearly US$2 million in research project
funding. The research project will develop
smart-grid enabled residential electric vehicle
chargers over the next 3 years that will allow the
quick deployment of charging infrastructure for
plug-in electric vehicles (PEV) to help reduce
America's dependence on foreign oil.
Dr. Herman Chang, general manager of Delta's
Charging and Microgrid Solutions Business Unit
said, "The DOE's awarding the research
project in EV Charging infrastructure is high
recognition for Delta's advanced R&D
capabilities and innovative product design. The
project also aligns with Delta's mission:
"to provide innovative, clean, and
energy-efficient management solutions for a better
tomorrow."
Delta Products Corporation has teamed up with
electric utility and automotive manufacturing
companies in North America to develop innovative
electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) to
minimize the cost of communications between charger
and grid, and meet local demand for smart
charging.
The DOE has specified that next generation EVSE
should support smart-grid functionality. With smart
chargers and smart grid technologies, the grid can
more efficiently manage the availability and
reliability of power, especially during peak times
and at popular charging locations. With smart-grid
communications, not only is the distribution grid
better optimized for lower energy costs, but it
also lowers the charging costs for consumers while
promoting faster and more efficient charging.
