Add the OCPP Remote electric vehicle charging station

Jean-Nicolas Turlier Updated by Jean-Nicolas Turlier

This article describes the configuration of an OCPP Remote charging station on the Climkit platform.

For connection planning or for the installation of the equipment on site, refer to the links at the end of the article.

Registration of an OCPP Remote charging station

When no Climkit Gateway is installed, a station can be connected directly to the portal via the OCPP remote server.

This configuration is mandatory for Easee or Zaptec stations, which cannot be connected locally to a Climkit Gateway.

This configuration allows:

  • user authentication via RFID badges
  • billing of consumption

It does not allow dynamic load management (DLM), which strictly requires a Climkit Gateway.

Configuration of the station

Enter the Climkit OCPP Remote server URL in the station settings:

ws://ocpp.climkit.io:9000

For Easee, simply select Climkit as the operator.

Adding the station to the platform

  1. Create a Gateway of type ocpp-remote
  2. Create the station by entering its OCPP identifier
  3. Link the station to the ocpp-remote Gateway
  4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for other stations.
