White Papers

E-Mobility: Navigate Safety, Interoperability, and Conformance

As governments and industry unite in a bid to achieve a net-zero world, manufacturers of electric vehicles (EVs) and electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) are moving to meet rapidly increasing demand for electrified transportation across all major economies.

Application Notes

Verification of Interoperability of all EV and EVSE Charging Interfaces

Although differences are found among countries and regions, global diffusion of electric vehicles (EVs) is still in its development process. While China and some European countries have established EV policies and the penetration rate of EVs is expected to rapidly increase, common requests for improvement in EVs necessary for the penetration include: • Acceleration of charging speed. • Extension of travel distance per charge. • Increase in the number of charging stations.
