Innovative EV Charging Enhanced by Open Source Software Stack

The Linux Foundation Energy initiative has unveiled a groundbreaking project aimed at revolutionizing the electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure. The project, known as EVerest, is designed to accelerate innovation in EV charging technology while promoting interoperability and standardization within the industry.

One of the key challenges facing the EV charging sector is the time-consuming and costly process of developing fully featured EV chargers. EVerest addresses this challenge with its wide feature set, robust development community, and open-source flexibility, making it an ideal software platform for EV charging solutions.

Versinetic, a leading technology company, has taken a significant step forward by integrating EVerest for EV Charging into its standard Charging Blox framework. This modular framework, trusted by customers across four continents, provides a reliable and flexible solution for EV charger development without the constraints of long-term subscription models.

Whether manufacturers are starting from scratch or looking to enhance existing components, EVerest offers the flexibility to adapt to specific needs. It can integrate a Charge Controller to make chargers "Smart," add a "Smart" interface while incorporating Charge Controller hardware, or develop a complete charging system from the ground up.

Graeme Wintle, Director of Versinetic, expressed his enthusiasm for the launch of EVerest for EV Charging, emphasizing its role in providing innovative solutions for the EV charging market. By combining the open-source EVerest platform with the Charging Blox framework, Versinetic aims to enable faster market entry with reliable, high-performance chargers, supporting the transition to a more sustainable future.

The EVerest framework offers a reference implementation and modular architecture that allows for interchangeable modules and easy addition of new features. This open-source approach not only enables local energy management use cases but also fosters a community of developers who can contribute to the code base, driving continuous innovation in EV charging technology.

Manufacturers can take advantage of EVerest's modular design to customize and extend the software for their specific needs. Customization options include remote diagnostics, custom load balancers, interfacing with Home Management Systems, additional hardware integration, payment terminals, site meters, and RFID compatibility.

Transitioning from development to production with EVerest's pre-tested solutions is seamless, offering manufacturers a streamlined path to market entry.
