Project Summary
Centre for Net Zero will test the use of dynamic electricity
prices to support affordable public electric vehicle charging,
address grid congestion and successfully integrate cleaner
vehicles into local transport systems. It is collaborating
with Octopus Energy Group’s public charging platform,
Electroverse, to expose drivers to real-time price signals to
incentivise charging when and where it is most beneficial to
local networks. This represents the first phase of a multi year study exploring the full potential of electric vehicles
as ‘floating resources’ to help balance the future electricity
grid.
