Emobi, an e-mobility roaming network provider, and Autocrypt, an automotive cybersecurity provider, have been working together since 2023 to develop a secure communication framework for EVs and charging stations based on ISO 15118-2 and ISO 15118-20 standards. The collaboration has focused on “building a robust Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) to address errors and data inconsistencies prevalent in traditional Plug & Charge systems.”
As Autocrypt explains, Plug & Charge enables EV drivers to start charging at any station simply by plugging in their vehicle. Through asymmetric encryption technology, the chargers automatically identify the EV and securely process the payment of the EV charging session. Autocrypt and Emobi’s Plug & Charge ecosystem is headquartered in the US, and complies with all US government regulations. It features an intelligent error-handling system.
Emobi has worked closely with the DOE’s Argonne National Laboratory to ensure that findings from this project contribute to the National Charging Experience (ChargeX) Consortium.
“Security in EV charging infrastructure enhances openness while providing better control,” said Sean HJ Cho, President of Autocrypt North America. “By combining our PKI technology with Emobi’s expertise in AI and machine learning, we are bringing a secure yet innovative Plug & Charge solution to market, creating an unrestricted charging environment that ensures convenience, precision and security throughout the entire charging and payment processes.”
Lin Sun Fa, CEO of Emobi, added, “The focus is to enable EV automakers, charger operators, and e-mobility service providers to continue building their products without being hindered by edge cases and constantly evolving standards. We are leveraging AI and Autocrypt’s PKI technology within the existing ISO 15118 standards, ensuring ease of implementation while improving charging infrastructure quality and security.”
