Have you registered yet for the OCPP Plugfest at the Vector HQ in Stuttgart? This will be the first Plugfest where we do interoperability testing with OCPP 2.1. You can register here!
We have compiled an interesting side program for everyone who is invested in the development of OCPP and EV charging standards. For three days we will dive deeper into communication protocols, new developments and new technologies.
September 17
On September 17 we will start in the afternoon with three different workshops! Find the topics below:
OCTT Hands-On – Join us for a one-hour session on the OCTT’s (OCPP Compliance Test Tool) scope, and certification process, and a practical hands-on workshop. You’ll gain access to a demo instance of OCTT and work with a CSMS as the Device-under-Test.
Testing EVSE from SIL to HIL – The workshop will explore testing Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE) from Software-in-the-Loop (SIL) to Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL). It includes a presentation, live demonstration, and Q&A session, lasting one hour. Topics covered will involve OCPP use cases, including certificate installation, CSR tests for TLS, fault injections, and transitioning from SIL to HIL, as well as Continuous Integration/Continuous Testing (CI/CT).
Plug&Play or Plug&Pray? – Join us for a 1-hour workshop to address the complexities of configuring charging stations with OCPP backend connections. You’ll work in groups with real charging stations and CSMS accounts to connect them to the backend and gather feedback.
