EvChargingService
An EvChargingService manages the charging of the electric vehicle at the charging station and allows the user to start the charging process and stop this process when required.
More than one EvChargingService can exist in the system at any one time, each implemented as a discoverable IVI service. Typically a EvChargingService implementation will support vehicle charging from a single specific e-Mobility Service Provider (eMSP).
