Platform v9.9

Highlights

Smart EV Charging

In line with the recent dashboard update, we’ve made significant improvements to our Smart EV Charging product for enhanced reliability. Previously, we used the car's location to decide whether to start cost-optimized charging. While this approach ensured user comfort, it was often unreliable due to delays in location updates.

Now, car owners can manually activate smart charging directly from the app. This change provides immediate feedback on charging schedules and costs, giving users more control and clarity.

Additionally, we’ve revamped the car-connection flow to deliver a smoother mobile experience.

Dashboard v7.15
We’ve enhanced our Smart EV Charging product to improve usability and provide greater control. Previously, the system relied on location-based functionality, which often lacked accuracy due to unreliable car location services. With this update, Smart EV Charging now operates on a push-based system. Users can initiate Smart EV Charging

Flexibility

Our platform is evolving to calculate the flexibility of a portfolio of installations and expose an API endpoint to act on this flexibility. While you might notice early actions around this feature, more updates are on the way—stay tuned!

Other improvements

  • Alarms can now be assigned to users in bulk for greater efficiency.
  • The gateway registration process has been adjusted to allow registration of gateways even without prior configuration, improving ease of use.
  • We resolved an issue where batteries controlled by Lewiz weren’t adhering to instructions from the Cloud EMS. Now, we send the installer-provided batteryPower parameter to the BMS controller, ensuring full capacity utilization.
  • Due to a firmware issue in the latest Lewiz update, we have temporarily disabled curtailment commands for devices reliant on the Cloud EMS.
  • Our Cloud EMS now logs when a user disables automatic scheduling. This ensures we can track and replicate any unusual behavior effectively.
  • Behind-the-scenes preparations for a major platform design overhaul in 2025.

API Updates

ControlSignal APIs

  • New endpoint /controlsignals where you can check on the status of all ControlSignals given to a meter
  • New endpoint /controlsignals/{controlSignalId} where you can check on the status of a specific ControlSignal
  • New endpoint /controlsignals/{controlSignalId}/cancel to cancel a ControlSignal
  • New endpoint /controltypes to see all possible controls a ControlSignal can represent

Flexibility APIs

These endpoints will later be used to see the offer of flexibility for a portfolio of installations. A new request can be made to act on that flexibility.

  • New endpoint /flexibilityoffers
  • New endpoint /flexibilityoffers/{flexibilityOfferId}
  • New endpoint /flexibilityrequests
  • New endpoint /flexibilityrequests/{flexibilityRequestId}
