Description
The widespread diffusion of electric vehicles (EVs) suffers from the lack of a well-developed public charging infrastructure, which currently is une-conomical to develop for investors. Many owners of EVs have private charging stations at their premises, which yield unlockable potential due to high idling times. In line with sharing platforms for other goods like accommodations and cars, we present the design, prototypical implementation, and evaluation setting of CrowdStrom, a peer-to-peer sharing service for charging EVs that networks individuals, their charging stations, and charging service customers.
