2022 highlights: winning first place in the Vodafone Digital Award

One of Volteum's highlights of 2022 was winning first place in the Vodafone Digital Award in the Environment and Sustainability Category. This was a massive achievement for us, and we are proud to be recognized for our hard work.

The Vodafone Digital Award

The Vodafone Hungary Foundation launched the Digital Award for the first time in 2018 to find projects that provide practical help in our everyday lives by supporting digitalization. The innovation competition was held for the fourth time in 2022, with 118 applications received, of which ten projects were awarded for their digital and social excellence.

Volteum's projects

With the Vodafone Digital Award, our primary goal was to extend the Volteum solution with a feature that helps the operation of vehicles based on live data. The new feature enables Volteum to track the change in the vehicles' energy consumption and state of charge (SoC) on the route. Our top-notch algorithms compare the real-time data to the pre-planned route for each car which the driver and the operator can both follow. If necessary, the solution can notify or replan the current route if the vehicle cannot make it according to the recent energy consumption.

Live data about the car's state can be obtained from electric vehicles with the help of onboard diagnostic devices. Volteum's systems can receive and process this data, and then, after combining it with outside parameters like weather, elevation, and mapping, we provide precise estimations of future energy needs. We model the 'behavior' of the vehicles and the environment around them meter by meter and calculate how the SoC (state of charge), energy consumption, and regeneration are changing along the way.
