EV charging in underground carparks is hard. Blockchain to the rescue How distributed ledgers and NFC reduce EV range anxiety NFC and blockchain solves a real-world problem Their solution is a patent-pending self-reliant connectivity blockchain protocol called Apollo, which, combined with NFC, allows charging stations and smart devices to be deployed anywhere, even in the most rugged environments. The company calls it the world’s first ‘No Internet for Things.’ I’m always interested in the answer to the question ‘Why now?...

EV charging security is a shit show EV charging networks are playgrounds for hackers All hail the white hat hackers You’ve got to love white hat hackers. They work tirelessly to find vulnerabilities before the bad guys do. Unbelievably the company they’ve found fault with often only acknowledges their effortsaftermedia reporting. For home charging, smart EV chargers allow the car owner to remotely monitor and manage the charge state, speed, and timing of their car charger via an app....

EV charging software goes open source with Project EVerest Project EVerest is on a mission to standarize EV charging protocols What’s the problem with EV charging software? The idea for EVerst came from Marco Möller’s previous startup, German commercial drone software firmMAVinci(Intel acquired the company in 2016). Möller shared: After the initial founder team left Intel in 2020, they did consulting work with charging manufacturers and found that many engineers were involved in “me too” projects, effectively replicating the same code, even though 99% of the code was already engineered....
