Editing Roaming (section)

== Roaming (electric vehicles) ==
The term "roaming", also known as "e-roaming", is a concept for charging battery electric vehicles (BEVs) at other charging stations.<ref>{{Cite web |title=There’s a Queue Coming for Tesla Charging, and That’s OK - IEEE Spectrum |url=https://spectrum.ieee.org/universal-tesla-supercharger-network |access-date=2024-04-17 |website=[[IEEE]] |language=en}}</ref> In practice, e-roaming allows EV drivers to achieve greater interoperability by providing access to public charging points from any owner/operator's [[Electric vehicle charging network|EV charging network]] through a common platform and a single network subscription or contract.

There are proprietary (closed) charging networks, such as [[Tesla Supercharger|Tesla Superchargers]], or providers sharing charging points through contracts and agreements. Thus, the EV can "roam" between those charging points.
