In them, identification and payment occur automatically
In the code of the Google Maps application there was a mention of a new function that should appear in the software later. We're talking about displaying Plug and Charge charging stations.
The Google Maps service has long been displaying charging stations for electric vehicles, the power of these stations and other data. However, soon the service will have one more useful function for owners of electric cars. Plug and Charge — These are charging stations that are freely accessible and do not require a proprietary application or any special card.
Of course, such stations are convenient for everyone, since you can use the charger without thinking. Moreover, in fact, Plug and Charge technology — It's not just charging without identification. On the contrary, there is identification here, but it occurs automatically when the car is connected to the station. This is also how payment is made, but the technology must be supported not only by chargers, but also by the cars themselves.
