The Open Charge Point Protocol (OCPP) is an application protocol for communication between charging points for electric vehicles and supplementary central management systems (CMS).

The protocol was originally developed by Joury de Reuver and Franc Buve and is now managed by the Open Charge Alliance - a non -profit organization based in the Netherlands.  

With OCPP, operators can monitor, control, configure and update e-charging points and also process payments and bills. The protocol is open, patent and license-free.
