Introduction

The global transition towards sustainable urban development and electric mobility has created a demand for intelligent, multifunctional infrastructure. The SOLARTODO 10m EV Charging Hub 3-in-1 is a state-of-the-art integrated smart pole system designed to meet the complex needs of modern cities. By combining high-efficiency LED street lighting, advanced AI-powered surveillance, and dual high-power electric vehicle (EV) charging capabilities into a single, elegant structure, this solution offers a comprehensive platform for building smarter, safer, and more connected urban environments. This document provides a detailed technical overview of the product, its components, and its adherence to stringent international standards.

The system is engineered for a 25-year design life, providing a long-term, scalable solution for municipalities, commercial property owners, and infrastructure developers. Its modular design not only simplifies installation and maintenance but also allows for future upgrades, ensuring the infrastructure remains relevant as technology evolves. With a total installed power capacity of over 44kW for charging and ancillary services, the hub is a cornerstone for developing robust public EV charging networks.

Structural Engineering and Design

The foundation of the 10m EV Charging Hub is a robust structural pole engineered for extreme durability and longevity. Fabricated from high-quality Q235 grade steel, the pole undergoes a hot-dip galvanization process in accordance with ASTM A123, providing a thick, protective zinc coating that offers superior corrosion resistance. The pole stands 10 meters tall with a wall thickness of 4mm, ensuring structural integrity capable of withstanding wind speeds exceeding 150 km/h. This resilience makes it suitable for deployment in a wide range of geographical locations and climatic conditions, from coastal areas to regions with high winds.

The pole's design is not only functional but also aesthetically modern, complementing contemporary urban landscapes. All cabling for the integrated modules is routed internally, protecting it from environmental damage and vandalism while maintaining a clean, uncluttered appearance. The modular mounting system allows for the secure attachment of the LED luminaire, camera system, and EV charging units, with precision engineering ensuring perfect alignment and stability.

Advanced LED Luminaire System

Illumination is provided by a high-performance 100W modular LED luminaire, designed for maximum energy efficiency and optical performance. The luminaire achieves an exceptional luminous efficacy of 170-190 lumens per watt, delivering brilliant, high-quality light while minimizing power consumption. This represents an energy saving of over 60% compared to traditional high-pressure sodium (HPS) lamps. The system features a tunable color temperature range from 3000K (warm white) to 6500K (cool daylight), allowing municipalities to adjust the lighting to suit different environments and times of day, enhancing both safety and ambiance.

Equipped with advanced Type II and Type III optical lenses, the luminaire provides uniform, glare-free light distribution, making it ideal for roadways, parking areas, and public spaces. The system is fully compliant with international standards for lighting, including IEC 60598 for luminaires and IEC 62722 for LED performance, ensuring reliability and safety. The luminaire's modular design allows for easy replacement and upgrades, further reducing lifetime maintenance costs.

AI-Powered Surveillance System

Security and public safety are enhanced through an integrated 4K AI-powered surveillance camera. The camera features a high-resolution sensor and a powerful Pan-Tilt-Zoom (PTZ) mechanism with 20x optical zoom, enabling detailed monitoring of large areas. Its advanced capabilities are augmented by a built-in edge computing module, which performs real-time AI analytics directly on the device. This allows for instantaneous detection and classification of humans, vehicles, and other objects without relying on constant cloud connectivity, reducing latency and bandwidth consumption by up to 80%.

The camera's AI algorithms can be configured for a variety of security applications, including traffic flow monitoring, parking management, and perimeter security. With an effective IR night vision range of 50 meters, the system provides clear, detailed video footage 24/7, even in complete darkness. This proactive security solution empowers city operators to respond to incidents faster and more effectively, creating a safer environment for citizens.

High-Power EV Charging Station

The centerpiece of the hub is its dual 22kW AC Level 2 EV charging station, providing a total of 44kW of charging power. This enables two vehicles to charge simultaneously, significantly reducing wait times and increasing the availability of public charging infrastructure. Each charger is equipped with a standard Type 2 connector, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of electric vehicles in the European and Asian markets (Type 1 connectors available for North American markets).

A critical feature of the system is its smart load management capability. The integrated smart controller continuously monitors the power consumption of all modules and the local grid conditions. During periods of high demand, it can dynamically adjust the charging output to prevent grid overload, ensuring stability and reliability. This intelligent power distribution is essential for the large-scale deployment of EV charging infrastructure without requiring costly grid upgrades. The charging units are housed in rugged, IP66-rated weatherproof enclosures, guaranteeing reliable operation in all weather conditions.

Connectivity and Smart Control

The 10m EV Charging Hub is a fully connected device, featuring a comprehensive suite of communication technologies. A 4G/5G module provides high-speed cellular connectivity for remote management, data backhaul, and firmware updates. For localized device-to-device communication, the system incorporates a LoRaWAN gateway, which is ideal for connecting a wide array of low-power IoT sensors for environmental monitoring (e.g., air quality, noise levels). Additionally, an integrated WiFi 6 Access Point can provide high-speed public internet access to over 500 concurrent users, turning the smart pole into a connectivity hub for the community.

All these components are managed by a central smart controller, which runs a sophisticated software platform for remote monitoring, control, and analytics. Operators can access a centralized dashboard to view real-time status, manage lighting schedules, control the PTZ camera, monitor charging sessions, and analyze historical data. This level of control enables proactive maintenance and optimizes the operational efficiency of the entire system.
