1. A method implemented on one or more computing devices for charging an electric vehicle, each of the one or more computing devices having at least one processor, at least one storage device and a data exchange port communicatively connected to a network, the one or more computing devices including at least one of a first computing device for charging station recommendation or a second computing device for charging control, the method comprising:
receiving, by the first computing device, a request for charging station recommendation from a client terminal;
determining, by the first computing device, at least one charging station within a preset distance range of the client terminal;
determining, by the first computing device, an evaluation for each of the at least one charging station based on one or more evaluation parameters, wherein the one or more evaluation parameters include at least one of:
a price discount provided by the each of the at least one charging station, a distance between the each of the at least one charging station and the client terminal, a preset recommendation value for the each of the at least one charging station, or a historical evaluation of the each of the at least one charging station;
transmitting, by the first computing device, the evaluation of the each of the at least one charging station and an identifier of the each of the at least one charging station to the client terminal;
receiving, by the second computing device, a charging request and an associating request for connecting the client terminal and the second computing device from a target charging pile at one of the at least one charging station;
determining, by the second computing device, charging information for charging an electric vehicle associated with the client terminal based on the charging request;
establishing, by the second computing device, a connection between the second computing device and the client terminal based on the associating request;
sending, by the second computing device, the charging information to the target charging pile for charging the electric vehicle based on the charging information; and
sending, by the second computing device, a charging signal to the target charging pile causing the target charging pile to charge the electric vehicle.
