HIGH VOLUMES FOR HIGH DEMANDS
Meeting the high demands of a trafficked, urban energy station
Ski is one of Circle K’s busiest locations in Norway and the grid access was not sufficient to offer fast charging. That’s why they chose Elywhere’s charging platform with battery storage.
Ski

- Akershus, Norway

The Problem
-
Insufficient grid access: The location has minimal access to electricity due to its urban location.
-
The Demand for Power: The location is one of Circle K’s busiest in Norway, and even the first charging platform couldn’t keep up with demand.
-
Long application process for grid access: The customer was investigating the possibility of upgrading the grid access to accommodate fast charging. The application process would have taken 1-2 years and could have resulted in a rejection.
Our Solution
-
Boosting the Grid with Battery Storage: With Elywhere’s ES-series charging platform, Circle K can offer fast charging using battery storage. The location now offers up to 150kW charging with only 63A grid connection!
-
Adapting to High Demands: In collaboration with Circle K, we replaced the entire platform with an upgraded version. 300kWh of battery storage became 600kWh, and by using the newly developed charging technology of Elywhere, efficiency increased drastically. We retrieved the old unit and resold it in another case with a smaller volume.
-
Shortening Time to Revenue: With Elywhere’s charging platform, Circle K was able to significantly speed up the process and launch its charging services at the desired time. This prevents competitors from establishing themselves in the same area, and both increases and accelerates the window for generating revenue.
