Developing an open network capable of serving all EV drivers is central to Better Place’s mission to accelerate the transition to EVs.
The Better Place network of charge spots not only will provide clean, renewable energy to Better Place subscribers, but also will enable drivers of almost any plug-in vehicle to charge up.
Establishing global standards will accelerate wide-spread adoption of EVs and positive driver experiences. Better Place actively participates in the development of these standards. Our goal is to establish a completely open network where all EV drivers can benefit from the Better Place charging infrastructure. The standardization of components such as electric plug connectors, communication protocols and battery modules are areas of focus. We are also driving performance standards for switch technology to ensure that drivers get the same quality of service regardless of where they go or which service provider they select.
