An electric vehicle (EV) charging station is a piece of infrastructure that joins an EV to an electricity source so that electric vehicles, neighbourhood EVs, and plug-in hybrids may all be recharged. The infrastructure and tools used to charge electric vehicles (EVs) are referred to as EV charging equipment. It consists of management systems, cables, connections, and charging stations. This machinery is necessary to power EVs, solving worries about driving range and accessibility to charging stations. Applications for EV charging equipment include workplace charging stations, household charging options, public charging stations in city centres, parking lots, and roads. With various charging rates and capacities available, its main function is to refill the energy stored in an EV's battery. To improve user experience and optimise power utilisation, EV charging equipment combines cutting-edge features including intelligent management systems and energy management systems. In general, EV charging technology is essential for facilitating the shift to sustainable transportation and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
