Introduction To Ocpp 2.0.1

What you'll learn
Learn about OCPP protocol and key concepts
How to connect a Charging Station to a Management System
How to authorize drivers who want to use a station
How to start and stop a charging transaction using various methods
Monitor different data, such as energy readings, during charging
How to stop charging using various methods
Requirements
You should know what an electric vehicle is and what electric vehicle charging means
Knowledge of basic IT-concepts such as client and server, and basic knowledge of software development is useful
Understanding of basic JSON syntax (there is a short introduction to this on course also)
Description
The OCPP is a communication standard used by electric vehicle (EV) charging stations to facilitate the exchange of information between the charging station and a management system. It is an open protocol, meaning that it is freely available for anyone to use. OCPP version 2.0.1 is the latest version of the protocol with major updates and improvements compared to older versions. On many parts the 2.0.1 version is totally different from the older versions. The OCPP protocol is designed to support a wide range of charging station hardware and software configurations, including single chargers and charging networks. It is also designed to support multiple EV charging technologies, such as AC charging and DC charging.In our online course on the OCPP protocol, we provide a comprehensive overview of the key concepts, structure, and functionality of OCPP-compatible systems. We cover topics such as:The basic structure and components of an OCPP-based charging systemThe different types of messages and data exchanged between the charging station and a central management systemThe different types of commands and responses used in OCPP communications, including start, stop and status commandsThe different types of authorization and payment methods supported by OCPP, such as RFID card and mobile appThe different types of error handling mechanisms supported by OCPP, including fault codes and error messagesThrough our lessons and quizzes, participants will learn how to effectively use OCPP-based communications to manage and operate EV charging systems. We also provide practical examples to help participants understand how OCPP is used.Upon completion of the course, participants will have the skills and knowledge to work effectively with EV charging systems that use OCPP. They will be able to troubleshoot and resolve common issues, and manage charging session information needed for billing. Our course is suitable for charging station operators, fleet managers, and EV enthusiasts who want to learn more about the OCPP protocol and how it is used in the EV charging industry.
