October 24, 2023 Qwello has joined the EVerest project to enhance electric vehicle charging infrastructure through standardized, open-source solutions, aiming for greater reliability and user satisfaction in e-mobility.
Qwello has officially joined the EVerest project, a collaborative effort focused on enhancing electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure through standardized, open-source software solutions. This partnership aims to tackle the common frustrations faced by EV users, such as frequent inoperability of charging stations, transaction interruptions, and a lack of adaptability to new technologies.
The EVerest initiative, developed under the Linux Foundation Energy, addresses industry challenges like vendor incompatibility, insufficient adherence to standards (such as OCPP and ISO 15118), and high development costs. By creating a common code base, EVerest ensures compatibility across various systems, enabling easier maintenance and faster updates.
With plans to transition all its chargers to the EVerest platform by 2024, Qwello is dedicated to achieving high uptime and reliable performance. The company will also contribute its expertise in the Rust programming language, known for its rigorous error-checking, to enhance system reliability.
The appointment of Holger Rapp, Qwello’s CTO, to the Technical Steering Committee (TSC) of EVerest signifies a strong commitment to collaboration. Holger emphasized the importance of open-source values, stating that joining EVerest is not just a technical decision but also a signal to attract individuals passionate about improving mobility.
Qwello’s collaboration with EVerest marks an exciting step toward a more efficient and sustainable future for e-mobility, inviting others who share their vision to join this transformative journey.
