Optimizing Carbon Footprint in EV Charger Installation
How can Zaptec measure and reduce the carbon footprint associated with the installation and use of their EV chargers?
Challenge
Zaptec faced a lack of detailed insights into the carbon emissions generated during the installation and operational phases of their charging solutions. This made it challenging to evaluate and document the environmental advantages of their innovative installation method compared to traditional approaches.
How We Collaborate
Terravera worked with Zaptec to develop a robust model assessing carbon emissions at every stage of the value chain—from installation processes to ongoing usage of the EV chargers.
The collaboration focused on
Mapping carbon emissions from cables, power supplies, and transportation during installation.
Comparing emissions across traditional and Zaptec’s optimized installation processes.
Analyzing the scalability of their charging infrastructure to assess its long-term sustainability impact.
This approach not only highlights Zaptec’s environmental benefits but also sets a foundation for future improvements in their operational processes.
Highlighted Insights
Installation Impact: CO₂ emissions from the cables and installation logistics were quantified to provide actionable benchmarks.
Operational Optimization: Key metrics, including daily mileage and energy consumption of Zaptec chargers, were analyzed to illustrate reduced emissions over time.
Data-Driven Future: The model offers insights into scaling up the infrastructure and addressing energy losses in expanded setups, positioning Zaptec as a leader in sustainable EV charging.
