Ocean’s Product Features

Hardware-Agnostic OCPP Platform

What is Universal Charger Connectivity?

Hardware-agnostic charging means Ocean can connect, operate, and manage EV chargers from different manufacturers through the Open Charge Point Protocol (OCPP). This allows operators to work with a wide range of charging hardware without being locked into a single vendor. Ocean supports industry-standard OCPP communication, enabling seamless integration, consistent control, and long-term flexibility across heterogeneous charging networks.

One Platform to Power, Manage, and Scale EV Charging
01.
Vendor independence
Connect and manage chargers from multiple manufacturers within one unified platform.
02.
Faster deployment
Integrate new hardware without custom development or long onboarding cycles.
03.
Future-proof operations
Avoid vendor lock-in and adapt your network as technology, regulations, and business needs evolve.
Why is Scalability Without Vendor Lock-In important?

EV charging networks grow over time and rarely rely on a single charger vendor. Operators often manage mixed hardware portfolios across locations, generations, and use cases.

Without a hardware-agnostic platform, teams face fragmented operations, limited flexibility, and costly vendor dependencies.

Hardware-agnostic charging solves this by allowing CPOs and EMSPs to:

  • Choose hardware based on performance, availability, or cost
  • Scale networks without changing backend systems
  • Replace or add chargers without disrupting operations
  • Maintain consistent monitoring, control, and reporting
  • Protect long-term investments as standards evolve
