- The ChargeAngels application runs on any Kubernetes enabled Cloud. Communication between the backend and the chargers uses the OCPP 1.6J or 2.0.1 protocol.
- It is also possible to collect other kinds of assets by integrating proprietary web services from vendors, such as photovoltaics or energy management systems.
What about security?
- We have 3 ways to identify users: RFID badge authentication, a mobile phone, or the exchange of certificates between cars, chargers and eMSPs.
- OCPP 2.0.1, currently in production on a few charger brands, incorporates security messages to transmit ISO 15118-2-related X.509 certificates.
- Plug&Charge via ISO 15118-2 enables secure authentication and authorization of a charging session simply by plugging in the charging cable: Plug&Charge.
