June 2026 Electric vehicle charging behavior Track and explain electric vehicle charging behavior with ElectricVehicleStatusEvent, which provides discrete snapshots that capture why a vehicle isn’t charging when connected, when charging will begin, and why charging started or stopped. Use ElectricVehicleChargingReason to explain charging state transitions. The framework provides ActiveReason for reasons why charging starts or resumes, and IdleReason for reasons why the vehicle remains idle when connected to a charger. Define charging targets with ElectricVehicleStatusEvent.ChargingTarget to show when charging begins and when it will complete, including the target charge, scheduled start time, and estimated completion time. Device identification Identify electrical load devices with type safety using ElectricalLoadDevice. Access device names through the deviceName property for electric vehicles, and the deviceName property for HVAC devices. Performance metrics Estimate driving range and battery temperature to give more context about a charging session using ElectricVehicleLoadEvent.ElectricalMeasurement.PerformanceMetrics. Home app integration Display your app’s energy data in the Home app by adopting the EnergyKit LoadEvents Entitlement. The Home app automatically shows activity logs, historical charts, trend notifications, and whole-home energy usage based on your submitted events.
