moveID

moveID is a decentralized digital identity infrastructure project focused on enabling secure and sovereign data exchange in mobility ecosystems. Led by Robert Bosch GmbH as part of the Gaia-X 4 Future Mobility initiative, the project develops an open architecture for managing digital identities of vehicles, infrastructure components, and mobility service providers using Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI) principles.

The technical implementation leverages several key technologies and standards:

• W3C Verifiable Credentials and W3C DIDs for identity management
• Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) for decentralized data processing
• Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) communication protocols
• Integration with existing SSI networks like IDunion and peaq network

The project has demonstrated practical applications through:

A peer-to-peer parking and charging use case for electric vehicles at IAA Mobility 2023
Integration with smart city infrastructure in Wolfsburg and Hamburg
Implementation of MOBI Vehicle Identity (VID) and Battery Birth Certificate (BBC) standards

Launched in July 2022 with support from the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action, moveID brings together 18 partners including major automotive companies, technology providers and research institutions. The project aims to counter centralized platform models by creating an open, interoperable ecosystem that preserves data sovereignty while enabling new mobility services and business models.
