189 Siemens ITS Digital Lab and Siemens Energy Business Advisory are working with StreeLight Data to help communities prepare for the growth in electric vehicle (EV) and to improve EV infrastructure planning.  

Siemens will offer its energy and EV infrastructure consultancy and analytic capabilities while StreetLight will provide technology that allows Big Data to be integrated with other data sources.

StreetLight uses Big Data-derived multi-mode analytics that provide insights into the sources of traffic flows. Siemens has used this data to quantify EV impact on the electric grid for more accurate infrastructure deployment planning.

As part of the deal, Siemens will combine its resources for synthesising information from different parties with StreeLight’s mobility data to offer customisable technical solutions.

    Gnewt to trial V2G tech to power EV fleet
    A London-based parcel delivery service is to trial Vehicle to Grid (V2G) technology to help power 70 electric vehicles (EVs). Gnewt by Menzies Distribution intends to use V2G to explore the ability of EVs releasing energy back to the grid when not in use. The trial is part of a Cisco-led project called E-Flex which aims to demonstrate how V2G can help reduce the demand EVs put on energy networks. Gnewt’s founder Sam Clarke says: “Through E-Flex, we’re able to sustainably carry on with our day-to-day op

    Kyocera and BYD to develop integrated energy system for EVs
    Japanese manufacturer Kyocera has joined forces with BYD (Build Your Dreams) to develop an integrated renewable supply-demand energy system for electric vehicles (EVs). Kyocera will combine its solar power generating systems with BYD’s electric buses in a bid to reduce power losses and maintain a stable supply-demand energy balance. For the project, Kyocera is to develop the energy and charge management system to control the supply-demand balance between energy production and consumption by using ag
