Telecom
Trustworthy and secure EV charging upon reliable 5G networks
- Italy
- SUMMARY
- Domain: Telecom
- Partners: GAP, Nova, CERTH, Ares2T
- Goal: The goal of this pilot is to leverage a private 5G network and cybersecurity measures to optimize the EV charging ecosystem, improving resource balancing, reducing costs, and enabling data-driven services.
- Pilot 7 presents two complementary scenarios focused on 5G-driven EV charging.
- PILOT SCENARIOS
Edge optimization of power flow
to EV needs
Lombardy, Italy
This scenario transforms chargers into “intelligent” bidirectional elements, optimizing grid power flow through O-CEI microservices, data management, and 5G’s low-latency, ensuring efficient load balancing and reduced environmental impact.
Increasing trustworthiness and security in EV charging data exchange
Lombardy, Italy
The O-CEI blueprint will incorporate security measures, data sovereignty, and auditing to ensure trustworthy data flow from sensors and EVs, supporting energy balance decisions with continuous monitoring and response to cyber threats.
