Information exchange for electric vehicle charging roaming service - Part 1: General

IEC 63119-1:2019 establishes a basis for the other parts of IEC 63119, specifying the terms and definitions, general description of the system model, classification, information exchange and security mechanisms for roaming between EV charge service providers (CSP), charging station operators (CSOs) and clearing house platforms through roaming endpoints. It provides an overview and describes the general requirements of the EV roaming service system. IEC 63119 (all parts) is applicable to high-level communication involved in information exchange/interaction between different CSPs, as well as between a CSP and a CSO with or without a clearing house platform through the roaming endpoint. IEC 63119 (all parts) does not specify the information exchange, either between the charging station (CS) and the charging station operator (CSO), or between the EV and the CS.

Overview

EN IEC 63119-1:2019 - Information exchange for electric vehicle charging roaming service (Part 1: General) defines the foundational concepts, system model and general requirements for high‑level information exchange that enables EV charging roaming. It standardizes terms and a classification of roaming models used between Charge Service Providers (CSPs), Charging Station Operators (CSOs) and optional clearing house/roaming platforms via a roaming endpoint (RE). The standard applies to high‑level communications between CSPs and between CSPs and CSOs, but does not cover communication between the EV and the charging station or between the charging station and CSO.

Key topics and requirements

  • Terms and definitions: canonical definitions for EV, EV user, EVSE, CSP, CSO, roaming, credential, Service Detail Record (SDR), charging session/transaction, roaming endpoint, clearing house (MCH/E_MOCH).
  • System architecture & models: general description of system components, roles and the RE concept used to mediate roaming interactions.
  • Classification / roaming modes: taxonomy of roaming arrangements and partner relationships to guide interoperability planning.
  • Communication interfaces & protocol stack: overview of communication interfaces; RFC 5246 (TLS 1.2) is a normative reference for secure transport.
  • Security and privacy: high‑level requirements for authentication, authorization, data transfer security and privacy mechanisms applicable to roaming message exchange.
  • Billing and settlement data: use of Service Detail Records (SDRs) and identifiers for charging sessions, transactions and service sessions to support billing, clearing and reconciliation.
  • Credentials: support for physical or digital credentials (RFID, QR, usernames, digital certificates / plug-and-charge) used for authentication across networks.

Applications and who uses it

EN IEC 63119-1:2019 is intended for stakeholders involved in EV roaming and interoperability:

  • CSPs and EMSPs developing roaming business relationships and APIs
  • CSOs and charge point management systems implementing roaming endpoints
  • Clearing houses / roaming platforms enabling authorization, billing and settlement
  • Software vendors & integrators building backend systems for roaming, billing and roaming endpoints
  • Regulators and policy makers seeking consistent terminology and high‑level security expectations
  • Conformance and testing labs that assess high‑level interoperability between networks

Related standards

  • IEC 63119 series (other parts define specific protocols and message profiles)
  • Normative reference: RFC 5246 - TLS 1.2
  • Cross‑references include other EV and charging standards such as IEC 61851‑1 and the developing IEC 63110 series.

This standard is essential for designing secure, interoperable EV charging roaming ecosystems, aligning business processes (authorization, billing, clearing) and clarifying roles and interfaces for multi‑operator EV charging services.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

The article discusses the EN IEC 63119-1:2019 standard, which pertains to the information exchange for electric vehicle (EV) charging roaming services. This standard establishes the terms, definitions, system model, classification, information exchange, and security mechanisms for roaming between EV charge service providers (CSP), charging station operators (CSOs), and clearing house platforms. It provides an overview and general requirements for the EV roaming service system. The standard is applicable to high-level communication between different CSPs and between a CSP and a CSO, with or without a clearing house platform, through the roaming endpoint. However, it does not specify the information exchange between the charging station and the charging station operator, or between the EV and the charging station.
