EVopt Controller
EVopt Controller is a real-time optimization engine for depot operations. It manages vehicle dispatch and
charging to minimize costs, maintain service reliability, and avoid grid overloads. As a complete depot
management system, it includes tools for route assignment, vehicle dispatch, dynamic rescheduling, and
integrated DER control. Its built-in operational planning module allows operators to simulate changes to
routes or timetables and evaluate their impact before deployment.

Technology Underpinnings
EVopt-Controller optimizes the charging schedule in real-time to minimize operating costs while guaranteeing operations and honoring other operational constraints. The mathematical optimization algorithm considers operating schedules (arrival and departure times of individual vehicles), route energy requirements (arrival/departure battery state of charge), feeder capacity limits and availability of DERs.
More than a Charge Management System
EVopt Controller is much more than a charge management system. It is a comprehensive-Depot Management System integrating vehicle assignments, fleet dispatch, charging management, and grid constraint management.
