Good news for Swedish property owners, managers and tenants with EV chargers who are keen to play their part in reducing grid strain and lower electricity costs. 

The award-winning CHARGESTORM® CONNECTED 3 and 3i EV charge points are now compatible with Perific, the market-leading power management system for EV charging and heat systems.  

At the heart of Perific’s vision is balancing the power demand curve to spare the electricity grid unnecessary stress and expense. Spikes in demand are becoming more common as overall consumption increases and is focused during particular periods of time each day.  

The increasing popularity of EVs, and the need to charge them, is part of this evolution in electricity demand patterns. Smart charging of EVs is part of the solution. And CTEK’s futureproofed CC3 charge points are part of the ecosystem that enables smart power management to succeed.  

Perific’s hardware and software both monitor electricity usage in real-time whilst providing advanced power management for more secure EV charging. The company makes all its products user-friendly so all can benefit from their capabilities, such as optimising charging hours within its free app.  

Perific’s products promote safer and more cost-effective EV charging by automatically balancing each charge point’s consumption. The EVs will charge when the best electricity prices are available and avoid high power fees. CTEK’s CC3 charge points are an ideal fit thanks to their ease of use and compatibility with the latest communication standards and protocols.  

Already Perific has more than 120,000 installations and has worked with more than 3,500 satisfied electricians and installers.   

Pierre Zetterström, Key Account Manager EVSE at CTEK, said:

“We are very pleased that our CC3 charge points work so well with Perific’s innovative systems and products that are focussed on delivering energy-saving and cost-saving innovation in incredibly user-friendly ways. This is an exciting integration for large and small facilities.  

“Making the most of the opportunities in the EV charging and power management ecosystem depends on the end users being confident and enabled to optimise their use. Both Perific and CTEK make that possible.”  

Gustav Dafnäs W, CEO of Perific Technologies, said:

“We're thrilled to have integrated our smart power control with CTEK's chargers, offering the market an effortless solution for intelligent load balancing and power control in their charging ecosystem.”
