ISO 15118 is an un-intuitive name for something that seems unbelievably simple: a set of protocols that allows an electric vehicle to communicate with charging infrastructure (like a charging station) so that all you need to do to charge your vehicle is plug it into a compatible port. That said, as of 2020, no vehicles had made use of it.
