Abstract: The method of location-based charging for electric vehicles provides for secure charging of electric vehicles by applying various charging mechanisms depending on users' and suppliers' specific attributes. When an operator of an electric vehicle connects the electric vehicle to electric vehicle supply equipment, a message is securely received by the electric vehicle supply equipment, which includes a set of operator-specific parameters. Based on the set of operator-specific parameters, a secure notification is transmitted to an owner of the electric vehicle supply equipment requesting authorization for the operator to charge the electric vehicle. The applicable charging mechanism of the electric vehicle is applied based on the owner's authorization message transmitted to the electric vehicle supply equipment and the set of operator-specific parameters.
