A Charge Point Management System (CPMS) is an operating system for Electric Vehicle Chargers. If you want to have any sort of control over your charging points, you need a CPMS. It enables functions like starting or stopping charging, accepting payments, and sending invoices.
Did my charger come with a CPMS?
No, most chargers don’t come with a bundled CPMS. So, you'll have to determine which CPMS you would like to use to power your EV Chargers on your own. It's important to remember that the CPMS you choose is going to determine what features your EV Charger can use and the usability (stability and user friendliness) of your chargers. In other words, picking the right CPMS is just as important as picking the right EV Charger.
What does a Charge Point Management System do?
In its simplest form, a Charge Point Management System enables your EV Chargers to send and receive communication. Generally speaking, it gathers all your individual chargers into a system. When you connect your chargers to the system, you can manage all of them from one place. That unlocks a host of possibilities, such as access control, automated price changes, load balancing, centralized updates, maintenance, and invoicing.
Which Charge Point Management System should I get?
There are many Charge Point Management Systems to choose from, and it's easy to feel overwhelmed. The important thing to remember is that you'll be using your CPMS every single day.
