Abstract: The increasing adoption of Electric Vehicles (EVs) has brought significant attention to the availability and efficiency of charging infrastructure. Although governments and private organizations are actively deploying public charging stations, their limited number and uneven distribution continue to pose challenges for EV users. In many cases, users experience long waiting times or difficulty locating nearby charging facilities. This survey paper presents an EV Charger Sharing Platform that encourages the utilization of privately owned EV chargers through a web-based system. The platform enables charger owners to list their chargers and EV users to search, view, and book available charging slots based on location and availability. Developed using standard web technologies such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, the system aims to improve charger accessibility, reduce waiting time, and promote sustainable transportation. By adopting a sharing-economy approach, the proposed solution offers a cost-effective and scalable alternative to traditional public charging infrastructure.
