This chapter has described the types of charging followed by the categorization of smart charging, the requirements and components of the smart charging system, the enablers who coherently support the development, operation, and management of the smart charging system, and control architectures developed so far for implementation and integration with the conventional grid. They commenced an outlook on commerce, evolution, and competitiveness in the smart charging system market.

This section is structured to give readers an understanding of the term “smart” and its applicability in an EV charging infrastructure. The first section defines “smart” and explains the context and approaches to adding smartness. The second section deals with different types of charging: viz., uncoordinated, coordinated, and smart. The third and fourth sections describe the impact and requirements of the smart-charging system, respectively. The fifth section defines each smart-charging system’s components, followed by a discussion on various control architectures that can be used for smart charging in the sixth section. The commerce and outlook of smart-charging are explored in the seventh section, followed by a conclusion in the eighth section.
