Charging Sessions

The Charging Sessions page allows managers to view and monitor all charging activity, as shown in Figure 4.3.1.
From the menu, managers can access two tabs: In Progress and History.

In Progress Charging Sessions

The In Progress tab shows all charging sessions that are currently active.
Each session is displayed in a table, with the following details, as shown in Figure 4.3.2:

Figure 4.3.2:In Progress

Session Details Table

Field	Description
Actions	Options to view more details about the session.
ID	Unique identifier of the charging session.
Started At	Date and time when the charging session started.
Charging Station	The station being used for charging.
Connector	The connector being used at the station.
Duration	Total elapsed time since the charging began.
Inactivity	Time spent idle during the session (e.g., vehicle plugged but not charging).
Power	Current power being delivered (kW).
Consumption	Total energy consumed during the session (kWh).
Battery	Battery percentage of the vehicle (if available).
Price	Cost of the current session, based on rates set by building management.
Company	The organization that owns or manages the charging station.
Site	The specific site where the charging station is located.
Site Area	Sub-area or zone within the site.
User	The resident or person using the charging station.

Actions

Each row in the In Progress and History table has an Actions column with two buttons:

1. View (👁️) – Opens the live session details.
2. More (⋮) – Shows additional management actions.

View Session (Eye Button)

Clicking on the eye button (View) opens a session detail modal with two main interfaces:

1. Power & Energy Graph View

This view provides a graphical representation of the session’s charging performance, as shown in Figure 4.3.3.

Figure 4.3.3:In Progress View Action

• User Information – Same as above.
• Session Stats – Current power, energy delivered, duration, inactivity.
• Graph –
  • Grid Power (kW) – The live power being drawn.
  • Energy Delivered (kWh) – Cumulative energy charged.
  • Grid Limit (A) – Maximum allowed current (if applicable).
  • Amount – Charging cost trend (if enabled).

The chart updates live and allows managers to track charging patterns, spikes, and efficiency.

2. Pricing & Consumption View

This view shows pricing details and the breakdown of energy consumption (Figure 4.3.4).

Figure 4.3.4:View Pricing

• User Information – Who is charging, with their unique identifier.
• Session Stats – Current power, total energy delivered, start time, duration, and inactivity.
• Pricing Breakdown –
  • Description of the applied pricing policy (e.g., Default Pricing).
  • Entity Type (Tenant, Visitor, etc.).
  • Entity ID (internal reference).
• Energy Section –
  • Unit Price (cost per kWh).
  • Consumption (energy used so far in kWh).
  • Amount (total price calculated from consumption).

This helps managers verify costs in real time.

TIP

For In Progress sessions, the graph updates live.
For History sessions, the graph shows a full playback of how the charging evolved over time.

History (Past Sessions)

The History tab shows all past (completed) charging sessions, shown in Figure 4.3.5.
Managers can filter sessions by date range, site, connector, or user.

Figure 4.3.5:Session History

History Details Table

Field	Description
Actions	Options to view more details about the past session.
ID	Unique identifier of the charging session.
Started At	Date and time when the charging session began.
End Date	Date and time when the charging session ended.
Reason	The reason the session ended (e.g., EV disconnected, stopped by user).
Charging Station	The station that was used.
Connector	The connector that was used.
Duration	Total length of the session.
Inactivity	Time the vehicle was connected but not actively charging.
Consumption	Total energy consumed during the session (kWh).
Price	Cost of the session.

Graph View

• Like in-progress sessions, clicking a row expands a graph of the session (Figure 4.3.6).

Figure 4.3.6:Session History Graph

• The graph shows energy delivered over time, giving managers insights into charging behavior and efficiency.

Filtering & Search

Both In Progress and History tabs allow managers to do the following (Figure 4.3.7):

Figure 4.3.7:Filtering Sessions

• Search by user, connector, or station.
• Filter by date range, site, or inactivity.
• Export data for reporting and analysis.

With this setup, managers can easily monitor live charging activity, review past usage, and identify patterns that help optimize station management.
