Look no further than YHI Energy
YHI Energy is a division of YHI (New Zealand) Ltd, a renowned distributor in the New Zealand automotive industry for over 23 years.
YHI Energy specialises in energy products and services and is the largest solar, battery and EV charging distributor in the country, with a distribution network of 8 branches and over 90 staff nationwide.
Five years ago, YHI made the leap into the new frontier of electric vehicles by landing the first shipment of Delta EV Chargers for the first substantial commercial EV fleet in New Zealand.
Since then YHI has been a core element to the dynamic organism that is EV charging. These days, the company’s range of charging equipment consists of over 50 products from two world-renowned suppliers.
Whether you need a basic no-fuss EVSE, a multi-vehicle rapid charger or anything in between, there really is an EV charger for everyone.
Fleet and facilities managers are facing seemingly daunting and overwhelming conversations about their strategy to electrify their fleet.
On the surface, fleet conversion and EV charging seems complicated. YHI Energy has a practical approach of breaking down perceived obstacles to present a solution to suit immediate and future requirements.
For fleet applications you can bet on the following two features benefiting your business;
1. Socket charging stations – much like your smart-phone charger, which facilitates the transfer of power via a USB outlet where you select the appropriate cable for your phone. A socket charger, such as the Delta AC Mini+ or the Rolec Wallpod, is precisely that for your electric vehicle. A universal outlet where you can select the appropriate cable for your vehicle. This approach allows for support of a mixed or evolving fleet of vehicles from different manufacturers.
2. OCPP – Open Charge Point Protocol, this is the prevailing standard that smart-charging stations use for communication. OCPP enabled hardware such as the Delta AC Mini+, paired with an OCPP software solution enables management, control and reporting of your EV charging infrastructure. This combats barriers such as lack of available power (load sharing), access control, cost allocation and remote diagnosis to name a few. The correct OCPP solution becomes more than just a hardware management tool, but a necessary insight into vehicle and charger utilisation to enable educated planning decisions.
For those who are unsure of their EV fleet direction, an OCPP compatible, socket charging station is the perfect future-proofed solution.
EV fleet charging requirements come in all shapes and sizes, there really is no one-size-fits-all approach. YHI has guided some of the largest fleets in the country towards a custom solution perfect for their requirements and turned the initial confusion and misconceptions about EV charging into a
positive and informative process. With a team of specialists dedicated to sustainable solutions and long-term relationships, YHI Energy is your partner for the electrification of your fleet.
