Introduction

The Open Charge Point Interface (OCPI) enables scalable, automated roaming between Charge Point Operators (CPOs) and e-Mobility Service Providers (eMSPs). It supports various functionalities including authorization, charge point information exchange (including transaction events), charge detail record exchange, and the exchange of smart-charging commands between parties.

The OCPI protocol is developed and maintained by the EVRoaming Foundation.
