❓ What is Plug & Charge?
The Plug & Charge feature aims to simplify charging. Simply plug in the vehicle and charging starts automatically, without needing a badge, app, or credit card. Everything works through secure communication between the charging station, the vehicle, and your payment account.
🛠️ How does it work?
ISO 15118 Standard 🗝️: this is the common language that allows the charging station and vehicle to recognize each other.
Automatic Authentication 🤝: when you plug in, the car and charging station identify each other and validate the session.
Integrated Payment 💳: billing is triggered automatically, linked to your account.
✅ Necessary conditions
To use the Plug & Charge feature, you need:
A compatible vehicle (e.g., VW ID., Porsche Taycan, Mercedes EQS, Hyundai Ioniq 6, etc.).
A Plug & Charge charging station (ISO 15118 compatible).
A linked account or contract with the vehicle for automatic billing.
💡 Billing is done by the operator with whom the contract was concluded.
