Abstract
The rapid expansion of electric vehicle (EV) infrastructure necessitates advanced solutions for secure and private authentication at EV charging stations. This research introduces a blockchain-based framework enhanced with self-sovereign identity (SSI) features, targeting the improvement of privacy and security in cyber marketplaces for EVs. The inclusion of SSI enables users to maintain full control over their digital identities, a critical advancement for authenti- cation processes at EV charging stations. This system effectively addresses the growing privacy and security challenges within the expanding EV infrastructure. By integrating Zero-knowledge proof with self-sovereign identity, the framework not only ensures robust security but also preserves user privacy by enabling users to prove their identity without exposing sensitive personal information. We propose an efficient and user-friendly solution, showcasing its potential as a pioneering inno- vation in the field of EV charging infrastructure.
