charging network

An electric vehicle charging network is an infrastructure system of charging stations to recharge electric vehicles. Many government, car manufacturers, and charging infrastructure providers sought to create networks. Today, charging network vendors include either proprietary solutions (ex. Tesla or ChargePoint), or hardware agnostic solutions (ex. AmpUp, EVConnect, and Shell Recharge). Hardware-agnostic vendors allow for customers to switch out their charge stations and/or switch to a different network vendors (similar to an unlocked smartphone); whereas proprietary vendors do not allow customers to switch.
