The Open Charging Network is a community project by and for the Electric Vehicle Charging community.

Its mission is to provide the EV Charging industry players an open, secure and efficient network for digital interoperability. This is why the core components are developed open source under the Apache license Version 2.0.

The community can contribute to the source code in the form of feedback, raised issues, pull requests and dedicated working groups.

The article under the following link should provide you with some guidance in how you can contribute to this project: Contributing to the Open Charging Network

The Public Test Environment of the Open Charging Network has now gained a second publicly usable OCN Node.

Developers that want to test their OCPI services against the OCN can connect to it from today on. This supports the OCN community to also test the routing mechansim of OCPI messages between different OCN Nodes.

The new node is available under https://ocnnode.elaad.io/.

Please follow the instructions for Connecting a service when you want to use it and reach out to Harm van den Brink from Elaad NL to obtain a registration token.
