8.5 Properties of Charging Modes
The EV Charger has 3 charging modes that can be switched between. The effect of the setting on
the charging mode is described below.
Icon Explanation
Fast charging
The vehicle is charged with the maximum available power. There is no optimization
here with regard to electricity costs and the use of PV energy. The charging power
is limited by the maximum charging power of the vehicle, the house connection and
the EV Charger.
Intelligent charging - Charging with PV surplus
The vehicle is charged with excess PV energy that would otherwise be fed into the
utility grid or cut off. The Sunny Portal is used to set how high the proportion of ex-
cess PV energy must be in order for the EV Charger to charge the vehicle. The
Sunny Home Manager schedules the charging by the EV Charger only as soon as
it can fulfill the set optimization target. Depending on the configuration of the prior-
ity of the optional appliances, the EV Charger is taken into account by
Sunny Home Manager before or after other appliances when scheduling. In this
charging mode, it is not possible to ensure that the vehicle is charged in all cases. If
the surplus PV energy is not sufficient for charging, no charging takes place.
Intelligent charging - Charging with specified target
The EV Charger is operated as a necessary appliance with as much surplus PV en-
ergy as possible. By entering a departure time and an amount of energy to be
charged in the SMA Energy App, the Sunny Home Manager intelligently plans the
charging process. The Sunny Home Manager enables charging at minimum cost
and with maximum utilization of PV power with sufficient charging to reach the des-
tination at the entered departure time. After sufficient charging for the target range,
the EV Charger automatically switches to Charging with specified target.
8.6 Changing the Charging Mode
To switch between the 3 EV Charger modes, proceed as follows:
