OpenSSF Best Practices

What is it?

EVerest is a Linux Foundation backed open-source modular framework for setting up a full stack environment for EV charging. The modular software architecture fosters customizablility and lets you configure your dedicated charging scenarios based on interchangeable modules. All communication is performed by the lightweight and flexible MQTT message queueing service. EVerest will help to speed the adoption to e-mobility by utilizing all the open-source advantages for the EV charging world. It will also enable new features for local energy management, PV-integration and many more!

Build and Install

The source code and installation instructions are currently hosted within everest-core.

Dependencies

everest-core relies on EVerest Dependency Manager (EDM) to help orchestrate the dependencies between the different repositories. Detailed EDM installation instructions are found here.

Full Stack Hardware Requirements

It is recommended to have at least 4GB of RAM available to build EVerest. More CPU cores will optionally boost the build process, while requiring more RAM accordingly.

Demonstrations

The current demos showcase the foundational layers of a charging solution that could address interoperability and reliability issues in the industry. Check-out the available demonstrations in the US-JOET Repo.
