ChargePi is an open-source Linux based OCPP-enabled ⚡Charging Point🔌 project. It is configurable, simple to make and uses off-the-shelf hardware.
It supports multiple connectors🔌, which consist of an indicator (🚥 RGB LED strip), a EV Charge Controller and a ⚡ power meter. Optionally, the charge point supports an RFID/NFC reader and a display as an user interface.
