The first certificate authority for emobility certificates goes into operation - Simple use of plug & charge possible at any charging station

Individual electronic certificates enable the respective customers and charging stations to identify each other in an unambiguous and reliable manner in the course of the communications process taking place during the charging process. The certification authority (Root CA) being placed into service by Hubject generates master certificates for automobile manufacturers, charging infrastructure operators, and EV electricity suppliers, who can then use these master certificates to create derived certificates for use in their own products.

The international ISO standard no. 15118, which governs the proper charging of electric vehicles at the "wall boxes", the personal charging stations, stipulates a "Root Certificate Authority" as a prerequisite - i.e. precisely the type of certificate authority that Hubject is now operating and making available to its European partner companies via the Hubject Platform.
