EV-CRA Charge with Compliance - Regulatory Framework for Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure

Explore how the European electric vehicle charging industry is adapting to new regulatory requirements through this 20-minute conference talk from the Eclipse Foundation's Code & Compliance event. Learn about the strategic challenges facing Europe's EV-charging infrastructure as it transitions from a fragmented ecosystem of vendors and standards to a more secure, interoperable, and compliant digital infrastructure under the EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) and NIS2 regulations. Discover how regulatory complexity can be transformed into operational clarity through open-source governance models, transparent development practices, and initiatives like CyberStand.eu that accelerate interoperability and strengthen security baselines across supply chains. Examine the ongoing revision of foundational protocols such as OCPP and understand how the industry can avoid repeating past mistakes seen with the German Calibration Law or ISO 15118 implementations. Gain practical insights into turning regulations and standards into measurable controls, structured processes, and continuously improving software artifacts, with actionable guidance for engineering teams, operators, and compliance officers on implementing default security measures, monitoring production systems, and creating machine-readable documentation and audit trails that support industry-wide compliance models.
