Additional features at the CharIN Testival
ChargeX Prescribed Testing
CharIN, in collaboration with ChargeX Consortium, is proud to support the charging industry by developing and providing a standard set of interoperability test cases. As part of the upcoming CharIN Testival NORTH AMERICA, a select subset of these testing cases will be implemented. Participants have the exclusive opportunity to engage in prescribed testing sessions, with incentives to those who choose to take part.
Prescribed testing sessions, scheduled for Wednesday and Thursday, offer targeted opportunities for Plug & Charge evaluation, with each session allocating 30 minutes for prescribed testing and an additional 60 minutes for ad-hoc testing (standard Testival testing). Moderated by ChargeX national lab engineers, these sessions ensure efficient handling of results data, with benefits including cash rebates, uniform testing approaches, and opportunities to influence testing processes for future advancements in charging technology.
Plug & Charge powered by Hubject
CharIN has extended the scope of the Testival with an additional testing option. Together with our technology partner Hubject, we offer the possibility to perform Plug & Charge end-to-end testing.
What does this mean?
In addition to the Plug & Charge Conformance Testing as part of the standard Testival ticket, you can test the interoperability of Plug & Charge under real conditions. Hubject provides a CPO backend, an eMSP service and a Plug & Charge ecosystem. The CPO Backend and the eMSP Service are connected to the Plug & Charge Ecosystem and participating EVSEs can connect to the CPO Backend via OCPP.
