Overview
Funktionsbeschreibung
General
Fronius EMIL is a software solution for managing the load, charging, and energy of e-mobility infrastructure. With the help of Fronius EMIL, current loads can be controlled in such a way that cables and equipment are not overloaded and the available energy is intelligently managed. Compatible devices are controlled by Fronius EMIL via the open communication protocol OCPP for communication with charging stations, and via Message Queue Telemetry Transport (MQTT) for communication with one or more Smart Meters, and can therefore be coordinated with each other in the software. Compatible devices include electricity meters and charging stations (see Compatibility).
By intelligently managing compatible devices, load peaks can be avoided or the available energy distributed as needed. Fronius EMIL is available as a cloud solution. Different locations can be integrated into one system, while several systems can be created. Fronius EMIL supports any number of data points. A data point can be a charging point (charging solution) or an electricity meter (Smart Meter).
Fronius EMIL supports the regulated and prioritized charging (see Load management) of electric vehicles. Furthermore, PV-optimized charging is also supported (see Energy management).
System layout
The following schematic illustration shows the layout of a system for the e-mobility infrastructure of a large company. The system contains several company locations (Charge@work), home charging stations (Charge@home), and the central administration of Fronius EMIL. Further information on Charge@work and Charge@home can be found here: Introduction.

System
General
Charging profile
A charging profile contains limit values for charging processes. These profiles can be assigned to users for specific groups in a system, or to an entire system. The user (charging-authorized user) can charge within the limit values defined in the charging profile.
With a charging profile, charging-authorized users can be assigned various load and energy management settings. Each charging-authorized user (for creating a charging-authorized user, see Users ) can be assigned one or more charging profiles and RFID cards, e.g. for charging at different company locations or at different charging stations.

Each charging-authorized user (for creating a charging-authorized user, see Users ) can be assigned one or more charging profiles and RFID cards, e.g. for charging at different company locations or at different charging stations.
Load management
Load management in Fronius EMIL is used to protect your infrastructure. This prevents load peaks. Load peaks can occur at times of the day when the demand for electricity is highest and the infrastructure is insufficiently designed for this.
The settings implemented apply to each charging profile and to all users (charging-authorized users) to whom the charging profile is assigned.
Avoiding load peaks
The following illustration shows how load peaks can be avoided by using load management at certain times of the day. We assume the basic consumption of an infrastructure (building load / building consumption) between 6 am and 5 pm. From 6 am, the energy demand of the infrastructure increases because employees want to charge their e-vehicles.
Settings
In the load management of the charging profile, you can set the minimum and maximum permissible amperage as well as the energy that a charging-authorized user is permitted to use when charging. The priority can be set (1 = highest priority), whereby vehicles with a low priority are charged later with little available energy.
The minimum amperage [A] is the minimum current with which a user may charge a vehicle, if the infrastructure permits it. If the infrastructure does not permit it and the value falls below this limit, charging does not take place. It is recommended to set 6 A as the minimum value, as most vehicles require this amperage as the minimum charging current.
The maximum amperage [A] is the maximum current with which a user may charge a vehicle, provided that the technical conditions allow this.
The maximum energy [kWh] is the total energy with which a user may charge a vehicle, provided that the technical conditions allow this. More energy may not be drawn.
Possible charging interruptions can be prevented by activating Allow charging pause. Some vehicles do not resume the charging process after an interruption.
Energy management
Energy management in Fronius EMIL is used to optimize your energy use. The settings implemented apply to each charging profile and to all users to whom the charging profile is assigned. When creating a charging profile, different energy management settings can be defined for different days of the week.
In the energy management of the charging profile, you can set the minimum and maximum permissible energy as well as the maximum power that a charging-authorized user is permitted to use when charging. A priority can also be set (1 is the highest priority), which allows mutual priorities to be set in the profiles when adding several energy management settings (it may be the case that several settings cannot be fulfilled in parallel, so it is important to set the priority).
Optimization > Yes, optimized self-consumption can be set, in order to preferably use self-generated energy for charging the electric vehicle fleet.
The max. energy [kWh] is the total energy that a user is authorized to use when charging. More energy may not be drawn.
The minimum energy [kWh] is the minimum energy that a user is authorized to use when charging, even if the optimization is set to Yes, optimized self-consumption. If no self-generated energy is available, charging is still carried out up to this value. After that, up to max. energy [kWh], if self-generated energy is available.
In the case of Finished until, setting a time can be used to define that the min. energy [kWh] will be used for charging by this set time. It is irrelevant, whether self-generated energy is actually available when optimization is activated.
Possible charging interruptions can be prevented by activating Allow charging pause. Some vehicles do not resume the charging process after an interruption.
The charging timer allows the user to define the entire energy management for the period of one calendar week. Click on "Add" to save different settings for different days. For example, the optimization can be set to active from 6 am to 5 pm from Monday to Friday, whereby the optimization does not take effect outside this period.
Simulation
Both Smart Meters and charging points can be simulated. This is helpful for testing purposes.
To enable simulation, the driver "chargepoint-electrical-simulator" ("Settings" > "System") must be defined for the created data points. Simulated Smart Meters have no further function. For simulated charging points, the connection and disconnection of a vehicle can be simulated.

7Repeat steps 5 and 6 if necessary.
8Click "+ Load Manager".
9Implement the necessary settings for a newly added Load Manager.
Use the Load Manager to arrange the created data points (Smart Meters, charging points) in a hierarchy. The hierarchy created should correspond to the reality of your infrastructure; if necessary, the structure can be freely selected. The data points are displayed in the "System overview" as they are set up in the Load Manager. See Load management.
Creating an Energy Manager takes place in the same way as creating the Load Manager. However, the hierarchy is not important here. The data points should be added to an Energy Manager where this makes sense. See Energy management.
