Expanded integration scope
The Siemens-Epic certification covers a comprehensive range of integrations, including Open Charge Point Protocol (OCPP), cybersecurity measures, and advanced software features. This integration allows Epic Charging to provide:

  • Easy Onboarding: A simplified process that reduces the time and effort required for new customers to start using the EV chargers.

Solutions for Public Charging Operators
Siemens offers EV Charging equipment with NTEP certification that has been proven across North America as an ideal solution for organizations who plan to operate EV chargers for public use.

Solutions for Governments
The Epic Pricing Engine allows governments to maximize the value of their investment in Siemens EV chargers by utilizing the optional Private-Hybrid charging mode. Fleets across the country are already using this feature to provide reliable charging for their vehicles and also utilize the chargers to deliver an employee benefit that aligns with rideshare and scope 3 emission reduction programs.
