EVNotify

EVNotify is a revolutionary application designed to streamline communication between powerhouses and electric vehicle (EV) charging stations. By harnessing decentralized networks, EVNotify provides users with real-time updates on charging station status, maintenance schedules, and nearby optimal charging options. Our mission is to simplify EV charging for a greener future.

Features

Integrated Map

• Displays nearby charging stations with red, yellow, and green markers indicating high, medium, and low traffic respectively.

  

Nearest Station

• Guides users to the nearest charging station with high power availability and less traffic.

  

Station Updates

• Utilizes push protocol to keep users informed about closed EV stations, maintenance schedules, and updates on high-traffic charging stations.

• Employs the power of Long-Short Term Memory models (LLMs) and machine learning models to predict the load of charging stations.

  

Real-time Data Storage

• Utilizes InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) to store real-time data of EVs at power stations.
