What is EV Charging? Just like a cell phone, EVs need to be charged in order to have enough power to continue to run. EV charging is the process of using EV charging equipment to deliver electricity to the car’s battery. An EV charging station taps into the electrical grid to charge an EV. The technical term for EV charging stations is electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE). EV drivers can charge at a home charging station, a public charging station, or at a workplace charging station. Residential EV charging refers to charging at home with a Level 2 charger (read more about EV charging levels down below). Commercial electric car charging applies to EV fleet, multi-family units, and workplace charging stations. Commercial electric vehicle charging stations can be used by employees and customers. Many commercial EV charging stations are open to the public as well.
