Integrating AI and Blockchain in EV Charging
Muhammad Usman Tariq
Abstract
This chapter investigates the creative uses and underlying difficulties of integrating blockchain and artificial intelligence (AI) technology in electric vehicle (EV) charging systems. It thoroughly examines the industry's state today, highlighting AI-driven advancements like dynamic pricing, predictive maintenance, and user behaviour monitoring for better charging station operations. The chapter also examines how smart contracts and decentralised processes in blockchain provide safe and effective transactions in the EV charging infrastructure. Real-life case studies demonstrate effective deployments worldwide and provide insights into the advantages and practical problems. The conversation ends with a critical analysis of the issues, such as legislative barriers and data privacy concerns, and a look ahead, highlighting the revolutionary potential of blockchain and artificial intelligence in reshaping the landscape of sustainable mobility.
