A white paper based on the legal situation in Germany (also known as "Eichrecht")

Are you manufacturing charging stations, managing charging stations via your IT backend as a charge point operator, or providing end customer contracts as an e-mobility service provider? If you answered ‘yes’ to at least one of these questions and you plan to provide your product or service in Germany, then the white paper shown below is for you.

This white paper addresses the existing calibration law regulations (“Eichrecht” in German) and ways to facilitate a transparent and tamper-proof billing process. Germany is one of the first countries across the globe to enforce calibration law regulations for EV charging infrastructure. We assume that similar regulations and requirements will also be introduced in other countries of the European Union and maybe even beyond along with an increasing market penetration of EVs.

The white paper covers the following subject matter:

The legal framework related to charging infrastructure and the billing of electric energy is still early and may continue to evolve with time and use cases. Over time, an ever-growing list of companies will introduce products and services to the market that comply with the legal stipulations described in this white paper. Many countries in Europe and worldwide may soon adopt this legal framework or make country-specific adjustments.

We plan to keep this document up-to-date and would appreciate your input to achieve this goal. Please don’t hesitate to contact us and let us know of any insights you may have on this matter.

Since we have published our ISO 15118 Manual it has been purchased by the biggest names in our industry and has become standard literature.

as well as Daimler, Porsche, Shell, Tritium, and many more...

As we were intensively implementing and testing
ISO 15118, we noticed there was a lack of overview of Plug & Charge and the whole supply chain amongst
our stakeholders.

Our training with Marc helped us achieve a much better understanding of the whole ecosystem. It led to constructive discussions on the requirements and concept of ISO 15118 in general.

Angelika Neuleitner,

charging system Specialist at Ionity

Working with recognized standards is the right way forward for the integration of electric vehicles into the grid, and we value Switch’s strong experience with the ISO 15118 standard.

We were able to leverage Marc’s insights to corner some of the keys issues pertinent to V2G in the published standard that needed to be addressed.

Hamza Lemsaddek,

Director embedded solutions at Nuvve Corporation

Attending Switch’s intensive two day training with the team gave us a deep dive into ISO 15118 and the different use cases.

We were able to validate our design with regards to the ecosystem and beyond. We now have a head start for the development of our next generation chargers and are able to support our customers for the deployment of the equipment all over Europe.

Johan Devos,

business development Manager at ENOvates

Certificate handling in ISO 15118 is a quite complex issue. Marc’s well prepared one-day course on this topic and his deep knowledge helped us to train our team and speed up the development of the ISO 15118 Plug & Charge
charging controller.

Johannes Bergmann,

eMobility Charging Systems DEVELOPER at SIEMENS AG

When I was working with students on ISO 15118 projects, Marc's courses tremendously helped in getting students to understand the standard quickly and dive into coding without hesitation. Marc's crystal-clear explanations with eye-catching graphics will make you an EV charging expert in one week.

Minho Shin,

Professor at Myongji University

In two exciting training days, Marc quickly and effectively explained ISO15118 communication to our experienced development team. In addition to the in-depth technical knowledge, the information about the communication standards that are still being established is very valuable. The training will definitely help us to make the implementation more effective.
