The scope of this document, as a basis for the other parts of IEC 63110, covers the definitions, use cases and architecture for the management of electric vehicles charging and discharging infrastructures. It addresses the general requirements for the establishment of an e-mobility eco-system, therefore covering the communication flows between the different e-mobility actors as well as data flows with the electric power system. This standard covers the following features: - Management of energy transfer (e.g. charging session), reporting, including information exchanges related to the required energy, grid usage, contractual data, metering data; - Asset management of EV supply equipment, including controlling, monitoring, maintenance, provisioning, firmware update, and configuration (profiles) of EV supply equipment; - Authentication/authorisation/payment of charging and discharging sessions, incl. roaming, pricing and metering information; - The provision of other e-mobility services; - Cybersecurity.
