Update about: Research on roaming protocols: contribution request Secured transactions via blockchain and OCPI - Share&Charge How to join the OCPI Community The OCPI Experience of… Jean-Marc Rives, CTO - GIREVE Successful first OCPI developer meeting Between 4 and 6 June the first OCPI developer meeting was held at the office of Freshmile in Strassbourg. During the meeting, results have been achieved on version 2.2. and decisions have been made on version 3.0. Contribution request: What is the current status of roaming protocols? What are the main challenges for roaming? Who should manage and develop roaming protocols and how? And should we move towards harmonisation of roaming protocols or will it be better if multiple protocols coexist in the future? These are some of the questions researchers at the Technical University of Eindhoven are trying to answer in the project evRoaming4EU. In order to get a grip on these issues, we are conducting interviews with stakeholders all across Europe. Would you like to participate to add your perspective to our study and contribute to moving towards a fully interoperable EV charging system?

Secured transactions via blockchain and OCPI The Share&Charge foundation is building a decentralized blockchain system for electric vehicle charging, to support payment and contracts. OCPI is used as protocol for these P2P connections between Service Providers and Charge Point Operators. The combination of OCPI with blockchain technology can result in secured contract and connections between parties and improved payment & settlement. Read moreJoin the OCPI Community!
Participate in the development of this internationally used open and independent protocol. Everyone is free to join. Join now!The OCPI Experience of… Jean-Marc Rives, CTO at GIREVE “GIREVE joined the OCPI board in July 2018. As a roaming platform, GIREVE is at the heart of data flows between operators. We implemented OCPI on our platform to give operators and services providers choice regarding the protocol used to connect. This decision is a declination of our moto: acting as an enabler for e-mobility actors and facilitating EV driver’s life by supporting business between operators. We joined the board because there is a need for governance of the protocol lifecycle. Due to our activity, we think we could have a useful expertise to propose ideas and feed-backs about the governance of the protocol and about the protocol itself. We already implemented OCPI on our platform and we use it with several operators. Based on this everyday experience, we can consider the improvements that need to be developed. To us, the most important thing is not which protocol is used but which services this protocol enables and how secure it is, so that more and more operators use it and so that roaming, in the end, becomes an obvious reality for everyone.”
Who supports OCPI? Many companies already implement OCPI, support it or participate actively in its development. These include:
OCPI has now been adopted and implemented by several EU energy and smart charging programs, including INVADE. The Netherlands Knowledge Platform for Charging Infrastructure (NKL) facilitates and coordinates this project to guarantee progress and ensure development and results.
