As more and more people are striving towards a more sustainable lifestyle and contributing to a cleaner planet, electric vehicles (with EV software) are also becoming more widespread. Plug and charge EVs use electricity for fuel, and therefore, reduce emissions and end up saving you money.
Just like smartphones, EVs can be plugged in and charged when the owner is at home, ready for use the next day.
However, if people find their electric cars nearly running out of power while they’re driving far from home, EV charging stations should be as readily accessible just as gasoline stations are for conventional vehicles.
Smart EV charging stations do present a great business opportunity. In the same manner, companies would do well to set up charging stations for their EV-driving employees. This would encourage even more people to go the environment-friendly route by getting electronic cars.

Wait, What’s OCPP?
If you are wondering what OCPP is, it means Open Charge Point Protocol, a protocol developed in 2009. It is used to facilitate the communications between electric vehicle charging stations and the central back-office systems.
It is an open standard and used internationally without charge and license requirements. OCPP is utilized by significant players across the EV market, including EV manufacturers, utility companies, back-office software suppliers, and CPOs.
OCPP is an open standard and enables operators and vendors of charging infrastructure to select and supply charging stations to their selected CPOs. OCPP also allows technological companies like Tridens to develop software solutions around such protocol.
OCPP 2.0 vs. OCPP 1.6 for EV Charging Networks
As software systems increase and better their security levels and their functionality, interoperability, and flexibility, communication standards and protocols also level up.
OCPP 1.6 and OCPP 2.0 boast well-developed smart charging functionality. OCPP 1.6 is the previous version of the open protocol, and many EV charging systems are still using it. OCPP 2.0, meanwhile, is the updated version, and many players in the market plan to switch to it soon. Tridens Technology is already OCPP 2.01 certified.
