What is EVCC?

EVCC is an extensible EV Charge Controller with PV integration. It allows you to to charge your car with optimal usage of your self generated power.

Normally to get this feature, the Wallbox needs to be compatible with a smart home manager in your house. Using EVCC you can make this work with a variety of wallboxes and a variety of power meters and PV inverters that are not designed to work together from their manufacturers. In addition it provides an interface to allow other device not directly supported to be included.

EVCC runs on a computer connected to your local network and with access to the supported devices. How such a device needs to be accessible depends on the supported device or the how the plugin interface is used to provide the according data.

Requirements

To run EVCC you must have:

• a supported Wallbox
• a supported power meter as a Grid meter
• a supported PV inverter, or supported power meter that measures the generated energy by the PV installation
• a supported computer running EVCC

Optional:

• a supported Vehicle to get the cars battery current state of charge

Getting started

• Install EVCC either manually or via Docker
• Create and edit the EVCC configuration to tell EVCC about your setup and how to access it
• Open a web browser and access EVCC to start charging
