OCPI: Open Charge Point Interface

OCPI (Open Charge Point Interface) is a standardised communication protocol enabling different Charging Point Operators (CPOs) to connect with Electric Mobility Service Providers (EMSPs).

This system facilitates the exchange of data between Electric Vehicle charging networks, allowing users to charge their vehicle at charging points from different providers. OCPI ensures interoperability between charging infrastructure and management platforms, simplifying access, billing, and authentication for users.

By offering transparent connectivity between sector players, OCPI supports the development of an open and accessible charging ecosystem, essential for the expansion of electromobility.
