Electric vehicle (EV) charging energy as a service is a business model that allows EV owners to access charging infrastructure and pay for the electricity used to charge their vehicles. This is especially appealing for those who live in apartments or other dwellings where it is not possible to install a charging station.

The project’s aim is to further develop and test innovative technologies for hydrogen electrolysis using renewable energy sources. Wind and solar power stations currently have to be switched off at times due to insufficient capacity of the energy grid. This will probably happen even more often in the future.

Another study found that if people choose to charge their EVs during times when there’s less demand on the power grid, we could cut emissions by another 18% – and maybe even allow EVs to support the grid. Additionally, switching to cleaner energy sources further reduces the environmental impact of generating electricity.

The three leading new options to re-supply our autos with energy are charging at home, battery swap stations and fast charge stations. The method that should seem most natural is charging at home. For instance, they may have solar panels on their roof or could, via their utility, opt for energy from renewable sources.
