Made from Recycled Materials
The Limpet would be best suited to a car park environment as a long-dwell time solution.
Which will feedback to a centralised system to provide real-time data on traffic, weather, and air conditions on a localised basis.
Our wall-mounted solution, the Limpet is made from recycled tyres and is designed to fit onto existing wall structures, connected in clusters of 5-10 sockets to a wall-mounted master charger unit, monitoring and controlling power flow to the socket and vehicle. Durable, discrete and environmentally sympathetic, it is best suited for public / private below-ground and multi-storey car parks where ground-mounted solutions are less appropriate. As are all our products, the Limpet is designed for environments where there is prolonged dwell time, offering a 7kW charge.
Over 40% of UK residents do not have a driveway or the ability to install a home charger. Providing fossil fuel forecourt will not meet this demand either. The only viable option is a low power, low cost, low impact residential and car park solution which can be rolled out nationally.
All of our products are designed to minimise visual impact and reduce street clutter.
At Connected Kerb, our core purpose is powering the future sustainably, which is why we have chosen to manufacture our charging components from recycled vehicle tyres and recycled plastic everywhere we can.
The Connected Kerb system can also be fitted with street level 5G repeater units, supported by our fibre backbone and facilitating the swift adoption of 5G in residential environments, from car to street to pedestrian to house.
Our charge points can be fitted with air quality, proximity, parking sensors and temperature gauges, which feeds back to a centralised system that is able to provide real-time data on traffic, weather and air conditions.
Our charge points are up to 7-22kWh and are classified as slow - fast chargers, they’re designed specifically for areas where dwell time is prolonged.
Slow charging places less stress on the vehicle’s battery and the electrical grid. It's also a 'quicker', more convenient way to charge if you know your dwell time is going to be significant. For example, plugging in when you get home in the evenings, going about your nightly routine, waking up in the morning with a charged car and no need to hang around waiting at a destination or fast charger.
Because we house the important parts of our system beneath the pavement, the repair times for the socket can be as quick as 24 hours.
Smart charging undertakes localised load balancing to prevent any potential overload to the electrical grid.
