| 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 excess 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 priority 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 energy 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 destination at the entered departure time. After sufficient charging for the target range, the EV Charger automatically switches to Charging with specified target. |
