Stefanie Padgett, Senior Vice President of Utility, Automotive OEM, and Electric EV Fleet at Rhythmos is on the show this week and raises an interesting point: just because you register a car somewhere doesn't mean it's charging there. Stefanie also highlights the challenges faced by utilities in identifying EVs, managing their impact on the grid and emphasizes the need for real-time monitoring and planning to avoid costly upgrades. You won't want to miss the story Stefanie tells about a utility that faced a transformer failure due to multiple EVs charging on the same distribution service transformer - and yes, this actually happened!_______________________________Connect with Elena:https://evs4everyone.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/elenaciccotelli/Are you connected with the podcast on LinkedIn? https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-evs-for-everyone-podcast/________________________Email Stefanie: [email protected] Connect with Stefanie on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stefaniepadgett/
