3. Use Case: Location-based (EVSE-specific) Pricing – Hubject

Scenario 3 - Location-based (EVSE-specific) Pricing: in this scenario, CPO XYZ wants to price charging sessions at his charging points based on the location of the charge point. Each EVSE is assigned its own pricing for charging sessions that take place at that EVSE. The table below shows how CPO XYZ can capture his location-based (EVSE-specific) price differentiation in the "PricingProductData" and "EVSEPricing" payload structures required for transferring tariff details to the HBS using the eRoamingDynamicPricing service.
