Vehicles as Mobile Energy Storage Units

Overview

Optimises EVs as mobile storage units, utilising O-CEI for intelligent charging, discharging, and fleet route planning, enhancing fleet resilience and battery autonomy.

 

Expected Outcomes

  • Using cross-domain data sharing from 5 individual sources to improve the business value chain for the post fleet (improved TCO) and the Energy Steiermark (Optimized energy procurement).
     
  • Successfully demonstrating an agentic AI Cloud-Edge-IoT solution using cross-domain data sharing and updating every 15 minutes to constantly improve the business value chain for Post and Energie Steiermark.
     
  • To enable the POST to choose a charging strategy to reduce the energy consumption.
    • KPI: 15-20% Reduction (for fleet operator) of peak load.
    • KPI: 10-15% Reduction (for fleet operator) of charging costs.
