Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. introduced Nissan Energy Share in Japan on March 1, a groundbreaking service aimed at unlocking the full potential of electric vehicles. This innovative offering incorporates Nissan’s unique energy management technology, seamlessly controlling the charging and discharging of EV batteries.
Drawing inspiration from extensive research conducted in locations such as Namie, Fukushima, Nissan has developed proprietary technologies for autonomously managing EV batteries. The resulting Nissan Energy Share service is primarily targeted at companies, businesses, and municipal governments, designed to facilitate optimal energy management tailored to the specific needs of customers.
At the core of this service lies Nissan’s intelligent charging management system, a technology that transforms EV batteries into energy units capable of directly powering buildings and communities. This system employs a charge-discharge controller connected to charging or charge-and-discharge units, predicting energy usage and determining the optimal timing for charging and disgarging.
The result is efficient energy load shifting and peak shaving without make any concessions between vehicle performance or comfort. Key aspects of the service include load shifting through smart charging, enabling real-time monitoring of energy usage in buildings and optimal timing for EV charging. Moreover, the system supports peak shaving through discharge management, reducing grid usage during periods of high energy demand. For buildings equipped with solar panels, the system facilitates the efficient use of renewable energy, aligning with global initiatives like RE100 by promoting the consumption of on-site renewable energy.
Nissan has a goal to provide a comprehensive one-stop service experience for customers, covering planning, system build-out, and ongoing maintenance operations. The service offerings consultation, system build-out, and ongoing maintenance operations.
The company endures at the forefront of mobility innovation, demonstrates its dedication by engaging in programs and field tests to shape a carbon-neutral and sustainable future.
