When is my EVSE data score assessed?
The EVSE data is scored on the first day of every month, that means that any change that you have done to your EVSE data will be reflected right after the scoring has been done. That means that if you improve your EVSE Data on the 27th of a September, the changes will be reflected in the score that will be set upon the 1st of October.
How can I improve my EVSE data score?
Our EVSE Data Score calculator takes in consideration two main parameters to calculate your Overall EVSE Data Score; Correctness and Completeness.
As a CPO, how can I improve my correctness?
For the correctness of the EVSE data, we take in consideration three main factors. The correctness of geolocation, power data and additional info.
Geolocation:
In geolocation, we check that all information given in the Address fields and geocoordinates matches.
Example of a valid geolocation:
EVSEID: DE*ABC*E13526TEST*1
Country: DEU
City: Berlin
Street: EUREF Campus
House Number: 22
Postal Code: 10829
Geocoordinates (Google format): 52.480751, 13.356580
Example of an invalid geolocation:
EVSEID: DE*ABC*E13526TEST*1
Country: DEU
City: Berlin
Street: EUREF Campus
House Number: 22
Postal Code: 13627
Geocoordinates (Google format): 53.480751, 13.356580
In the invalid geolocation, the geocoordinates and the postal code do not match the address given by that EVSEID.
We recommend to make sure that the data given in the address fields match with each other but as well it matcher the geocoordinates given in the EVSEID.
Power Data:
In Power Data, we check that Charging Facilities contain all the information. In addition all values given in Charging Facilities must match with the Plug type as well with the voltage provided, which is calculated L-N (line to neutral)
Example of a valid Power Data:
Plug Type: Type 2 Outlet
Power Type: AC_3_Phase
Voltage: 230
Amperage: 32
Power Output: 22.0
Example of a invalid Power Data:
Plug Type: Type 2 Outlet
Power Type: AC_3_Phase
Voltage: 400
Amperage: null
Power Output: 22.0
In this example we can see that the voltage provided is not L-N but as well the amperage is not provided. which leads to faulty data.
As a CPO, how can I improve my completeness?
Completeness score evaluates how much data you provide in the EVSEID. The more accurate data is provided in the EVSEID, the better the completeness score is.
Some fields taken for the completeness score are from the new protocol which is the OICP 2.3. If you are a CPO that using OICP 2.2, we highly recommend you to upgrade your system for OICP 2.3 and be able to improve your EVSE Completeness score.
