An EVSE ID is a unique number assigned to a charging station, used for identification, support, and roaming. It is displayed on the platform and should be affixed to chargers at (semi)public locations. While the EVSE ID includes a numeric code and is associated with a country code for roaming, the country code is not shown on the sticker.

Customers can use the EVSE ID during registration to register their charging station. If they do not have an EVSE ID, one can be automatically generated, or they can request one later, which will be reflected in the order list. When registering a charger, you can generate an EVSE ID through the charger settings (Adjust EVSE Controller).

Generating new EVSE IDs

EVSE IDs can easily be generated in the platform for printing purposes (sticker). This is done as follows:

  1. In the menu, go to 'CPO / EVSE IDs';

  2. Click on 'Generate new batch';

  3. Select the number of EVSE IDs you want to generate;

  4. Assign an attribute to your batch;

  5. Create the batch stickers;

  6. In your overview, you can now select the batch to export the batch.

To generate EVSE IDs for multiple connectors (e.g., 1232334C1 to 1232334C16), indicate this during the process. This is useful for charging systems with one OCPP ID and multiple connectors, often used by charging post manufacturers with Client and Server systems.

Send EVSE ID

EVSE IDs you can send to clients in advance or afterwards if they have indicated this during the registration process. To do this, follow these steps:

  1. In the menu, go to 'CPO / EVSE IDs';

  2. Select 'Assignment requests';

  3. Now you will see the list of EVSE IDs you can send.
