What Is OCPP In EV Charging Infrastructure And Its Application?
management systems and payment platforms This interoperability allows EV drivers to use different charging stations from different manufacturers with the same ease and convenience as they use different gas stations from different oil companies
Remote monitoring and diagnostics: OCPP allows charging station operators to remotely monitor and diagnose charging equipment, which can help to reduce downtime and maintenance costs For example, if a charging station is not working properly, the operator can use OCPP to remotely diagnose the issue and potentially fix it without the need for a technician to physically inspect the equipment
Load management: OCPP can be used to manage the flow of electricity between charging stations and the grid, which can help to avoid overloading the grid during periods of high demand For example, charging station operators can use OCPP to set charging rates and schedules that balance the needs of EV drivers with the available capacity of the grid
Dynamic pricing: OCPP enables charging station operators to implement dynamic pricing models based on real-time data, such as the cost of electricity and the demand for charging services. This can help to optimize revenue and utilization of charging equipment while providing a fair and transparent pricing model for EV drivers
Data collection and analysis: OCPP provides a standard format for collecting and analyzing data on charging usage and energy consumption, which can help to improve charging infrastructure planning and management For example, charging station operators can use OCPP data to identify patterns in charging behavior, such as peak usage times, and adjust their operations accordingly.
These are just a few examples of how OCPP is being used in the EV industry As the industry continues to grow and evolve, it is likely that OCPP will play an increasingly important role in enabling interoperability, flexibility, and scalability for EV charging equipment and services
GREENERG is a EV Technology Company started in 2020 focusing on Electric Powertrain, Connectivity Solutions and Digital Instrument Cluster The company has good presence in EV 2W and 3W market with its state of the art instrument clusters working on both single wire protocol & CAN The company has indigenously made IPM motor and controller which can work upto 10KW and has an unique integrated in wheel drive which can go from 1 5KW to 20KW
The total Business by 2030 in motor and controller alone constitutes roughly about 6Billion USD according to the numbers presented here. That’s a huge opportunity. So its time now for an Indian EV technology company to emerge. At least to start with cratering to local markets to begin with. As we know the FAME -II subsidy is given on the basis of make in india EV components, I feel this industry has been given the focus it really requires."
