The OCPP Plugfest was back in Arnhem! You can now watch the aftermovie
Last week, we welcomed the OCPP community to Arnhem, the Netherlands, for another inspiring edition of the OCPP Plugfest. Hosted at the ElaadNL test lab, the event brought together participants from around the globe to test, connect, and collaborate. With the lab glowing in OCA purple and yellow, we kicked things off in true Plugfest spirit. On September 30, all test teams gathered in Arnhem in the morning to start Plugfest! With 36 test teams from across the globe and over 100 test sessions onsite and online, this Plugfest edition was a great success. Our test teams tested OCPP 2.0.1 as well as OCPP 2.1, the latest version.
“The Plugfest location is great. It’s a big open space where you can see everyone testing. Switching from OCPP 2.0.1 to 2.1 was quite easy for the first part, because it is quite similar.” Victor Da Costa, onsite tester from Current
More than testing!
Next to the testing, on October 1, we opened up to observers who were witnessing the testing, we brought together the OCA Working Groups and we provided the latest updates from OCA and OCPP in plenary sessions. In the ever-changing EV world, we find it important and valuable to stay connected with the OCPP community and the broader industry.
“We have testers all around us and at the same time, we are having face-to-face meetings of the OCA working groups. We discuss many different topics, ranging from commissioning to new charging stations and to more advanced configurations and cyber security.” Anders Darander, OCA Working Group member from CTEK Sweden AB
Overall, we can proudly look back on a Plugfest full of collaboration and enthusiasm from the community. Here’s what we’re proud of:
- Interoperability testing: All test teams gave it their best.
- Shared learning: At OCA, we love to keep learning and developing
- Meeting and connecting: We brought the OCPP community together and we enjoyed every minute of it!
