Development of a Mobile Platform for Electric Vehicle Charging Station Management and Driver Engagement

The client faces increasing demand for electric vehicle charging stations across the country. Drivers require quick access to nearby charging stations, route planning, and real-time status updates, while station owners need efficient tools for registration, monitoring, scheduling maintenance, and usage reporting. Existing solutions lack seamless connectivity, user-friendly interfaces, and compliant communication protocols, leading to potential downtime and poor user experience.

A rapidly expanding electric vehicle charging network provider seeking to streamline station management and enhance driver access through a dedicated mobile application.

• Create a cross-platform mobile application enabling drivers to locate, reserve, and pay for charging services efficiently.
• Develop an intuitive interface for station owners to register stations, monitor usage, schedule recharges, and manage maintenance activities.
• Implement real-time communication channels between the app and charging stations using standard protocols to ensure stable operations.
• Enable quick payment processes via QR codes integrated into the app for seamless transactions.
• Incorporate smart reporting features to track energy consumption and usage metrics for both drivers and station operators.
• Deploy a scalable, secure, and user-centric platform ready for market launch within a defined timeline.

• Real-time station locator with filtering options based on user needs and proximity
• Route planning tool incorporating charging station stops along travel routes
• User account management with usage history and performance indicators
• Secure QR code-based payment system for initiating and completing charges
• Station registration portal for owners, including scheduling, status updates, and maintenance alerts
