UNIVERSAL AUTOMATED SYSTEM FOR IDENTIFYING, REGISTERING AND VERIFYING THE EXISTENCE, LOCATION AND CHARACTERISTICS OF ELECTRIC AND OTHER POWER OUTLETS BY RANDOM USERS AND FOR RETRIEVAL AND UTILIZATION OF SUCH PARAMETRIC DATA AND OUTLETS BY ALL USERS

A system for registering power outlets for electric vehicle charging that may be used to charge electric vehicles. A database stores subscriber data relating to subscribers registered with the system and power outlet data relating to registered power outlets for electric vehicle charging that have been located by a reporting entity.

The server is further configured to receive a search request for a useable power outlet for electric vehicle charging from a subscriber, the search request including location information defining an area of search for the useable power outlet for electric vehicle charging, locate at least one power outlet for electric vehicle charging within the area of search that is registered with the power outlet management system and provide a location of the at least one power outlet for electric vehicle charging located within the area of search to the subscriber. A network interface for connecting the server to a network for receiving the power outlet data and the search request.
