Explanation:
We are talking about a system that releases a spot in an online system for others to use. As far as I know, we have not come up with a standard phrase for this yet, so I would use the longer very clear version of making the space available.

Explanation:
If the battery is empty and a charging station is free, it maneuvers in the corresponding parking bay and is charged inductively, without a cable. Then it makes room for the next electric car and rolls to a free parking space. In this way, the few existing charging stations can be used effectively.
