Extensive research, combining literature, lessons from other EU projects and local insights from pilot sites and co-design workshops, will help us align with real behaviours, expectations and everyday needs.<\/p>\n<h5><strong>What matters most to users?<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>Across all pilot sites, several common concerns and expectations emerged. Users are particularly interested in the <strong>financial benefits and flexibility<\/strong> that bidirectional charging can offer. However, there are still important barriers to overcome. Concerns around <strong>battery health<\/strong>, lack of <strong>clear and transparent information<\/strong>, limited charging infrastructure, and uncertainty around costs and taxation influence user acceptance. They expect solutions that are <strong>simple, reliable, and seamless<\/strong>, with clear incentives and full control over how their vehicle and energy are used.<\/p>\n<h5><strong>From insights to design<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>These findings are shaping the design of ePowerMove solutions, that considers accessibility needs, gender perspectives, and the experiences of users with limited mobility.<br \/>\nAs a result, the project will consider:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Accessible and easy-to-use<\/strong> charging station design, with clear interfaces and intuitive interaction<\/li>\n<li><strong>Urban environments and climate conditions<\/strong>, such as visibility, lighting, and placement<\/li>\n<li>Inclusive features like <strong>clear icons, readable displays, and supportive design elements<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Overnight and residential charging are critical for smart, grid-friendly solutions. Users, however, face challenges with cost, availability, convenience, and trust. ePowerMove explores solutions such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Incentives for off-peak and overnight charging<\/li>\n<li>Expanding slow charging access in residential areas<\/li>\n<li>Better integration with renewable energy<\/li>\n<li>Simplified payment and interoperability<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The goal is simple: make EV charging not only functional, but comfortable, safe, and accessible for everyone.<\/p>\n<h4><a href=\"https:\/\/www.epowermove.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/D1.3-End-user-requirements-1.pdf\">All findings are detailed in Deliverable 1.3.<\/a><\/h4>\n<p>These insights are now guiding the design of ePowerMove\u2019s charging solutions, which will soon be put to the test in the project\u2019s pilot sites in <strong>Helsinki<\/strong>, <strong>Klagenfurt<\/strong>, and <strong>Nicosia<\/strong>, providing a real-world validation of how user-centred V2G charging can work in practice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ePowerMove places users at the heart of V2G charging by combining research, co-design, and real-world insights.
