Unlocking Efficiency: The Benefits of Dock Charging in EV Charging Stations
With the number of EVs getting sold constantly on the rise, the need for having a strong EV charging infrastructure has also become the foremost priority.The charging infrastructure is the backbone of electric mobility.High operating costs, Discom load, and the uncertainty related to charging station utilisation rates are holding back the charge operators from expanding their current reach.India is picking up the pace in setting up the charging infra but at a slower rate than other regions like european Union (EU), US, or China. This raises the priority to connect existing EV owners and EV Charging Stations. We want to simplify finding compatible charging stations. This article will talk about the dock charging and benefits of using it.
Need of charging dock
The Government is making considerable efforts to strengthen EV charging infrastructure by installing DC fast chargers.Using slow chargers is a main problem area for those living in high-rise apartments and stand alone housing societies in particular. The solution lies in EVCD, a charging dock that can be installed at the parking slot of the user.
What is dock charging
Dock charging is a DIY plug-n-play device with unmatched features.It is ideal for all residential and commercial spaces with its real-time spot billing via QR code scanning. Capable of charging electric two-wheelers, four-wheelers, e-rickshaws, e-golf-cart, and/or any e-mobility vehicle.The Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA) introduced the Model Building Bye-Laws for EV charging infrastructure in February, 2019 which makes it mandatory for residential and commercial buildings to have at least 20% of the parking space for EV charging infrastructure. EVCD is ideal for all residential and commercial spaces with its real-time spot billing via QR code scanning.
How EVCD (Electric vehicle charging docs )works
The EVCD has internal relays to be operated when the EV user scans the QR over the module to authenticate themselves and then taps the Start Button over our Mobile Application.
The power supply switches off under following conditions:
User taps the Stop button on the Mobile App
Time set for charging on the App user can set time to charge. When this time gets over, the relays switch off
After the charging session completes, the back-end determines the bill and can deduct from the prepaid system or monthly billing could be done or immediate payment through payment gateway. Whatever the payment modality is, if payment is not done users will be barred from further charging till the payment is done.

Advantages of EVCD
EVCD is ideal for all residential and commercial spaces with its real-time spot billing via QR code scanning. The web and app-based solution details out the charger locations on Google Map along with their charge fees too.system provides the ease of getting integrated with society’s existing prepaid metering system as well. Integrated with all modes of online payments – you can charge your EV with instant payments too.
Charging docks allow us to save the energy we use to transport batteries, thus lowering CO2 emissions and reducing our carbon footprint.
By providing dedicated micromobility parking spaces, we encourage more people to use greener transport options, leading to fewer cars on the road and a reduction in CO2 emissions.
Summing UP
Dock charging offers its clients and customers unmatched reliability. It's like a Charge Point Operator running on an app based man less operation module.It helps to manage an EV charging Station effortlessly by easing the upkeep and maintenance of an EV Charging Station minimal, eliminating the need for a full time staff to handle operations.
