CTO / co-founder at Flipturn: charger management for EV fleets

The OCPP specification (Open Charge Point Protocol) is super key for EV chargers to be able to communicate with a variety of charger management systems, like Flipturn. But wow, the OCPP implementations that we connect to can sometimes be pretty creative with how they interpret the spec! That’s why we run a rigorous testing process with each new charger vendor and adapt to each charger’s needs. We aim to provide the most reliable and highest quality data that is possible to get from a CMS — while integrating with the chargers our customers choose to buy.

Have you seen the EVerest Project? We have made OCPP charing station implementation a commodity. Hope to replacement all these different interpretations with one open-source stack. As it is open source you can even use it as a simulator on a laptop.

When I think of the word ‘protocol’ in standards implementation— I think of HTTP, TCP, etc. Not a lot of room for interpretation. Is OCPP not a purist protocol in that sense?
