Eaton’s role in advancing vehicle electrification
Electric vehicle owners have high safety, efficiency and technology demands for both their vehicle and charging solution. Vehicle manufacturers — along with the owners of multi-tenant resident buildings where much charging occurs — must respond to the demand with innovations that perform and inspire, while meeting home energy or business goals. Eaton’s electrification expertise helps achieve both.
Inside the vehicle, Eaton’s experience, coupled with their capabilities in power electronics and electrical power distribution, inspire technologies that save time, increase safety and drive efficiencies that impact everyday travel, your business and the planet for the better. Eaton’s Breaktor® circuit protection technology advances EV system safety to ensure people and components are protected. Breaktor can be integrated into Eaton’s power distribution system with their innovative connector and terminal solutions for an electrical system that delivers the efficient, reliable power that EV drivers can count on.
Beyond the vehicle, Eaton’s EV charging infrastructure (EVCI) solutions offer safe, smart, energy-optimized vehicle charging right at your doorstep. Whether you need to charge at home, at work or on the go, Eaton offers more than EV chargers alone. For homeowners, their complete charging infrastructure solutions allow you to optimize charging and lower energy costs. With the integration of renewables, energy storage and more, homes can create a smart home ecosystem with connected software solutions and act as their own energy hubs.
There’s even greater control for commercial buildings and multi-tenant residences: building owners can balance the power load optimally across several chargers, employ peak shaving to avoid spiking energy prices, distribute costs in any proportion among users, and even monetize charging to generate revenue.
Whether you are a vehicle manufacturer or a building owner, you are facing a time of incredible change and innovation. With Eaton’s know-how, resources, and solutions, you will give drivers the vehicles and supporting infrastructure they deserve and boost your business or home for a greener future.
