I looked into it, and apparently EV chargers in the EU are supposed to comply with EN ISO 15118-1 to -5 series of standards from January 8, 2026 and additionally EN ISO 15118-20 from January 1, 2027. I haven't exactly had the chance to read all of those obviously, but the summary certainly sounds encouraging:
Oh ok. I have no idea what the situation here is for bidirectional charging. It’s not common yet.
And yes, we’re trying to work out common payment systems, but as far as I know, that’s just software. Historically chargers required you to register and pay through the manufacturers app, but that’s unscalable when you have many possible charger manufacturers supporting a common standard.
One of the requirements for US incentives to build out chargers was mandating credit card readers so anyone can drive up and charge without a proprietary app. Of course that was cancelled in our chaotic political situation, so will take more years to happen
Here's hoping you guys will eventually manage to work it all out, even if that will likely have to await a more, um... rational policy regime.
Rational … hahahahahahahahahhehehe hoo hohoho hah haha hah hah hahahahahah aha haha. Sorry, where were we again?
I think we were having a shared nervous breakdown over the current state of geopolitics, but the hyperventilation made me lose consciousness so I can't be sure.
