Energy management is getting more and more important due to net congestion. Not only for businesses but also at home. Come and learn how you can build your own smart EV charge solution so you can manage your energy yourself! There are plenty of paid solutions out there, but probably none will fit your private situation. As a developer you have the luxury to be able to build your own solution matching your needs: link it to your agenda, connect to your home automation, dynamically charge based on energy prices, use your car as a battery for your home. You can be in control. The sky is the limit!After a quick introduction into the world of the energy market players and standards, we’ll dive into how to control your own EV charger and create your own CPO (Charge Point Operator). I’ll demo how to implement the CPO using the latest Java, Quarkus and Vaadin and ways to test your CPO.
