Electric Vehicle Energy Management Systems; Complicated, or Fun? (Burnaby Festival of Learning)

Electric Vehicle Energy Management Systems; Complicated, or Fun? (Burnaby Festival of Learning) In-Person

Learn how BCIT's OASIS Electric Vehicle Charging Station manages to supply power to 10 EVs at once without disrupting the existing power needs at BCIT's Burnaby campus.  With a simple card game we can demonstrate how the power needs of Electric Vehicles can be met, without going over the physical electrical limitations imposed at the OASIS installation.  Learn how the EVEMS juggles supplying power to charge your car, and have fun doing it.
