Strata EV Charging 
                     Strata EV Charging Solutions by Energy Warriors: Powering the
Future of Sustainable Living
Introduction 
As electric vehicles (EVs) gain popularity, the need for convenient and effective charging infrastructure
in strata-managed buildings is growing. Energy Warriors, partnering with ReadySteadyPlug, presents an
innovative solution designed especially for Strata EV Charging: the Level 1 Smart EV Charging system.
Understanding Level 1 Charging
Level 1 charging uses a regular 10A or 15A electrical outlet, providing around 15 kilometers of driving
range for every hour of charging. Considering that the average city vehicle in Australia covers roughly 35
kilometers each day, a 10-hour overnight charge can deliver a range of up to 150 kilometers, adequately
satisfying regular daily driving requirements. This approach is adequate for the majority of users and
additionally enhances battery lifespan by preventing the rapid degradation linked to elevated charging
speeds.
Introducing Ready Steady Plug: A Smart Solution for Strata Buildings
ReadySteadyPlug  is  an  innovative  EV  charging  system  designed  in  Australia  to  address  the  unique
challenges of strata buildings. It  combines the simplicity of Level 1 charging with advanced features
commonly found in more expensive Level 2 systems, offering a cost-effective & scalable solution for
multi-residential complexes. 
Key Features of Ready Steady Plug
Modular Design
The Electric Vehicle Charging Distribution Board (EV-DB) can be installed in the main switchboard or
distributed along parking bays, supporting configurations for 6 to 24 General Power Outlets (GPOs). This
flexibility allows for a modular and scalable approach, growing with the building’s needs and keeping
upfront costs down. 
Individual Metering and Billing 
Each GPO is individually metered, with billing managed via a cloud-based system. This setup supports
both  credit/debit  card  payments  and  post-pay  options  through  strata  management,  ensuring  that
energy costs are accurately allocated to users. 
Load Balancing, Monitoring, and Scheduling
The system includes energy monitoring of the building supply and the EV charging circuits, connected
through secure online communications. This ensures efficient energy usage and prevents overloads,
mitigating the need for expensive electrical infrastructure upgrades and reducing maximum demand
charges from energy retailers. 
Advantages of Level 1 Charging in Strata Settings
Implementing Level 1 charging in strata buildings offers several benefits:
Cost-Effectiveness
Level  1  systems  require  lower  power  supply,  often  eliminating  the  need  for  significant  electrical
infrastructure  upgrades.  This  makes  it  a  financially  viable  option  for  strata  communities,  as  the
investment required starts at around $5,000 to purchase and wire up a 6-user EV-DB. 
Ease of Installation 
Utilizing  existing electrical  infrastructure simplifies  the installation process,  reducing disruptions and
associated costs. Owners who have an EV or want tenants with an EV can afford to pay for an RPG EV-DB
to be installed themselves, without imposing on the Owners Corporation. 
Scalability
The modular nature of ReadySteadyPlug allows the system to expand in line with the growing adoption
of EVs within the community. This staged rollout approach ensures that the infrastructure evolves with
demand, maintaining efficiency and cost-effectiveness. 
Implementing EV Charging in Your Strata Community
Energy Warrior offers comprehensive services to facilitate the adoption of EV charging solutions in strata
buildings:
Site Assessment
A qualified electrical  engineer conducts a thorough evaluation of  the building's  energy  distribution,
demand analysis, & system specifications. This assessment provides a clear understanding of the existing
infrastructure and the requirements for implementing the EV charging system. 
Installation
 Following the assessment,  Energy Warrior  coordinates the installation of the EV-DB and associated
components,  ensuring  compliance with all  relevant standards and regulations.  The process includes
setting  up  load  management  and  billing  software,  tested  and  implemented  by  experienced
professionals. 
Ongoing Support
Post-installation,  Energy  Warrior  provides  continuous  support,  including  monitoring  energy  usage,
managing billing systems, and offering maintenance services to ensure the longevity and efficiency of
the EV charging infrastructure.
Conclusion
The transition  to electric  vehicles  is  an inevitable  progression towards sustainable  living.  For  strata
communities,  adopting  efficient  and  cost-effective  charging  solutions like  ReadySteadyPlug not  only
meets  the  immediate  needs  of  residents  but  also  future-proofs  the  building  for  the  increasing
prevalence  of  EVs.  Energy  Warrior's  expertise  &  tailored  solutions  make  this  transition  seamless,
empowering Strata EV Charging communities to embrace the electric revolution with confidence.
