Secure charging station for electric cars: New sensor detects manipulation to charging current measurements

Monday, March 9, 2015 - 09:21 in Physics & Chemistry

Future visions of electromobility include a comprehensive charging station network. However, it would be impossible to monitor them all in order to protect them from being manipulated. Scientists have now developed a new sensor for charging stations which unites three functions: in one chip, charging current is measured, manipulation to charging station is detected and all data are encoded, before being forwarded to the provider for invoicing purposes.
