Description

The Public Charge Point Regulations 2023 mandate that EV Charge Point Operators (CPOs) must open charge point data accurately through the Open Charge Point Interface (OCPI) protocol by 24th Nov 2024. We expect industry, including CPOs, eMSPs and other intermediaries, to use open data to ensure that consumers have access to accurate, timely data on public chargepoints, enabling them to find and use the most appropriate chargepoints for their needs with confidence. Given the prevalence of such providers, we do not currently see a need for DfT to build a data platform to serve aggregated open data to consumers. There is however a clear need to build a solution to enable DfT, regulators and other government departments and agencies to use open data effectively. The purpose of the procurement is to select a supplier to aggregate real-time data from public charge points in the UK, perform data quality checks, and submit this data to the Department for Transport (DfT) for regulatory and policy purposes.
