What is the project about?
LEG4EVSE will address three main challenges:
- Development of equipment and methods for accurate calibration of field equipment for measuring real and phantom power in DC charging systems.
- Development of efficient and reliable procedures for field measurement of real and phantom power in DC charging systems.
- Development of test methods and test equipment for megawatt DC charging systems.
The project develops common European measurement methods, test setups, and guidelines to be used by authorities, test laboratories, charging operators, and manufacturers.
The role of Justervesenet in LEG4EVSE
Justervesenet participates in the project as the national metrology institute and as a public authority within legal metrology. Our main task is to help ensure that the solutions developed in the project:
- are suitable for use in regulation
- can be applied in practical market surveillance and verification
- support fair trade and consumer trust
Results with societal impact
LEG4EVSE will contribute to a foundation for:
- Harmonised European requirements for energy measurement in EV charging
- More efficient and verifiable inspections of charging stations
- Increased consumer confidence that they are paying for the correct amount of energy delivered
- Better framework conditions for the continued expansion of EV infrastructure in Europe
For Justervesenet, the project will help strengthen our work on more effective and better tailored supervisory activities, as well as more adapted services for the industry.
