This is what all motorists, car-manufacturers and energy suppliers wish for. However, when it comes to charging vehicles, everyone has their own idea. Thanks to smart charging, all interests are coordinated at the interface between the vehicle and the charging infrastructure.

In this context, standardization and freedom from discrimination are especially important, since motorists expect interoperability. When buying an automobile, drivers do not wish to be bound contractually, geographically or technologically to a single energy supplier and its charging poles. Rather, as with petrol filling stations they expect to be able to charge and pay at any charging point.
