Abstract

Electric vehicle charging station management methods and systems for roaming charging are provided. First, a mobile device executes an application program to obtain identification data of an electric vehicle charging station, and transmits charging request data including the identification data to a first server corresponding to the application program through a first network. The first server determines a charging station operator of the electric vehicle charging station according to the charging request data, and transmits the charging request data to a second server of the charging station operator through a second network. The second server transmits a charging start instruction to the electric vehicle charging station through a third network in response to the charging request data, so that the electric vehicle charging station starts to perform a charging operation.
