2. Use Case: Charging Facility based Pricing

Antonio Acuña
Updated

Scenario 2 - Charging Facility based Pricing: in this scenario, CPO XYZ wants to price charging sessions at his charging points based on the maximum charging power (i.e. the maximum power that can be dispensed by the charging station). For instance, CPO XYZ wishes to price charging sessions at AC charge points differently from charging sessions at DC chargers. The table below shows how CPO XYZ can capture his Charging Facility based price differentiation in the "PricingProductData" payload structure required for transferring tariff details to the HBS using the eRoamingDynamicPricing service.
