Pod Point

Pod Point — trading as Pod since its February 2026 rebrand, with pod-point.com now 301-redirecting to podenergy.com — is a British electric vehicle charging company founded in London in 2009 and wholly owned by EDF since its delisting from the London Stock Exchange in August 2025. It sells and installs home, workplace and fleet chargers, operates the third-largest public charging network in the United Kingdom across Tesco and Lidl car parks, and acquired depot-charging specialist EO Charging in May 2026. It sits on the demand side of the UK electricity value chain, between the driver and the electricity supplier, as a Charge Point Operator rather than a metering, network or settlement body. Its API posture is narrow but real and honestly split: there is no developer portal, no OpenAPI, no Swagger and no consumer data API, yet a live OCPI 2.2.1 Charge Point Operator service runs at ocpi.podenergy.com whose version negotiation answers anonymously and enumerates a full module set, while every data module — locations, tariffs, sessions, CDRs — returns 401 Unauthorized without a bilaterally exchanged OCPI credentials token. Britain's Public Charge Point Regulations 2023 name OCPI 2.2.1 as the vehicle for open charge point data; the plumbing that regulation names is verifiably in place at Pod, but the open part of it is not obtainable anonymously from outside, and the company publishes no open data page, no OCPI token policy and no developer onboarding of any kind.

Pod Point is listed with 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Energy, United Kingdom, EV Charging, Electric Vehicles, and Utilities.

Pod Point’s developer surface includes engineering blog, support, authentication, code examples, and 20 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Energy & Utilities regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.

The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/pod-point: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.

Standards implemented 1

Standards this provider implements or carries. De facto ones are profiled and measured by the API Commons; formal ones come from the standards directory and are linked by the provider's own tags. The evidence column says how each claim was established — not that it was made.
