Tecell’s platform resolves charging sessions involving multiple roaming credentials through a unified OCPI transaction process. It maps each credential to a unique identifier, ensuring accurate billing and session tracking across networks. The system maintains session integrity by validating credentials at the point of connection and updating transaction logs in real time.
How It Works in Practice
In real-world deployments, Tecell’s ChargeSphere software integrates with multiple roaming providers using OCPI standards. When a user connects to a charger with a credential from one network, the system immediately checks against its internal mapping of roaming agreements. If the credential is recognized, the session is linked to the correct provider’s billing system. This prevents duplicate charges or missed billing when users switch between networks.
For example, a fleet operator using both a national roaming network and a regional one can seamlessly charge vehicles without manual intervention. Tecell’s platform automatically routes the session to the appropriate provider based on the credential used, maintaining accurate records for each provider.
What This Means for Charge Point Operators
Charge Point Operators benefit from simplified reconciliation when handling multiple roaming networks. Tecell’s platform ensures that each session is correctly attributed to the right provider, reducing disputes and administrative overhead. This is especially valuable in multi-operator environments where users may have accounts with different networks.
Operators can also monitor usage patterns across networks, gaining insights into user behavior and optimizing their charging infrastructure accordingly. The platform’s real-time updates mean that operators always have accurate data on which network is active, helping them manage capacity and plan for future expansion.
