Title: "Create Use Case Document for EV Charging Transaction"
Labels: C4GT Community, Documentation

Description

Context:
EV Charging has many workflows. Developers implementing beckn protocol for EV charging must understand the various workflows that exist in typical EV charging use cases.

Problem:
There is no documentation that clearly explains EV-charging sector in detail with typical workflows that occur when charging an electric vehicle

Goals

To create a use case document to allow implementers to understand EV charging use cases containing interactions like

• Discovery of charging sources (By location, charger type, vehicle type, operator, etc)
• Placing an order for charge (By time, money, number of units, etc) containing,
• Fetching quote
• Terms of service (various terms of service, payment, cancellation, and refunds)
• Confirmation (Advance, instant etc)
• Fulfillment of a charging order
• status updates,
• order updates,
• cancellation, and
• real-time tracking of power delivery
• Post-charging interactions
• Rating
• Grievance and Support
• Refunds

Expected Outcome

Any implementer of beckn protocol for charging should be able to understand how to map their business workflows to beckn API calls.

Acceptance Criteria

• By reading this document, any BAP implementer should be able to understand the workflows involved in EV charging use cases

Implementation Details

• Create a folder called docs/. Add a document called EV-Charging-use-case.md that details the following actions / interactions between a consumer and a charging point operator (with added sequence diagrams).
