The Open Charge Point Protocol

What is OCPP and why is it important?

OCPP stands for Open Charge Point Protocol. It is an open-source “language” that allows charging points and central management systems to exchange data.

OCPP has been created so that a common communication protocol is used across multiple manufacturers. This interoperability means consumers have greater choice over what hardware and software they use when transitioning to Electric Vehicles.

Clenergy EV believes in OCPP and its importance to wide-ranging EV adoption.
