An OCPP charger reports to one back office. Plugchoice passes its connection on to as many platforms as you need: your back office, an energy management system and your own product.

Carbon credits

In the Netherlands the renewable kWh you charge earn carbon credits. In the app you pick who registers them, and Plugchoice charges nothing for it.

What OCPP means on a charger

OCPP, the Open Charge Point Protocol, is the open standard a charger uses to talk to its back office, also called a backend or CSMS. A charger that speaks OCPP can connect to other back offices that do too, depending on model, firmware and configuration. Plugchoice is a free OCPP backend for OCPP 1.6J chargers.
