Silent Consensus

Autonomous coordination without communication

Autonomous · Scalable · Resilient
The Problem

Distribution grids weren't built for a million EVs

1M
EVs in Denmark by 2027
+10%
National electricity consumption
+20%
Peak power

Traditional centralized management solutions face several challenges:

Heavy communication & compute overhead
Single point of failure
Cybersecurity & data privacy exposure
Doesn't scale across sites

The Solution

Silent Consensus

A control method that turns each charger into an autonomous, intelligent unit. Units agree on how to share grid power, locally, instantly, with no peer-to-peer communication.

No overloading
Self-organizing
Linear scalability
Privacy by design

Who We Serve

Four customers, one coordination problem

Charger OEMs

Embedded firmware for cluster deployments, no cloud needed.

CPOs & Aggregators

Scalable control across sites, lower ops cost.

Grid Operators

Prevent overload without dictating charger brands.

Energy Companies

Same coordination problem, larger scale.

Communication-light vs cloud-tethered
Linear scalability vs O(n²)
Hardware-agnostic vs vendor lock-in
