  • Episode 05: The Future of Grid Flexibility and EV Charging, with Laurent Schmitt
    2024/09/12

    Send us a text

    In this episode of the Charge Point Podcast, we sit down with Laurent Schmitt, Europe Managing Director at DCbel and Chair of SmartEN. Laurent brings over two decades of experience in the energy sector, having held leadership roles at Alstom, General Electric, and ENTSO-E. Together, they dive deep into the current state of Europe's energy grids and the future of EV charging infrastructure.

    Key topics discussed:

    • Grid congestion & flexibility: Europe's grids are under increasing pressure due to the rise of electric vehicles (EVs) and renewable energy sources, with countries like the Netherlands feeling the strain earlier than others. Laurent explains how flexibility and smart energy management will be crucial to overcome these challenges.
    • The Role of Virtual Power Plants (VPPs): VPPs are evolving to integrate EVs, bi-directional charging, and home energy management, allowing for more efficient use of grid capacity. Laurent shares how this technology is reshaping the energy landscape.
    • Dynamic pricing & real-time data: As energy markets shift, dynamic pricing and real-time data management are set to revolutionize how we charge our vehicles, making energy use more affordable and efficient.
    • Home Energy Management: Laurent introduces us to DCbel’s innovative home energy solutions, which allow EVs to not only charge but also power homes and even feed energy back into the grid.
