description: '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.'

  description: 'Pod''s Open Charge Point Interface (OCPI) 2.2.1 service in the Charge Point Operator role, used for e-mobility
    roaming and as the technical vehicle named by the UK Public Charge Point Regulations 2023 for charge point reference and
    availability data. Version discovery is anonymous: GET /ocpi/cpo/versions returned HTTP 200 on 2026-07-27 advertising
    version 2.2.1, and GET /ocpi/cpo/2.2.1 returned HTTP 200 enumerating cdrs, credentials, locations, sessions and tariffs
    in the SENDER role plus commands, credentials and tokens in the RECEIVER role. Every one of those data modules returns
    HTTP 401 with OCPI status_code 2000 Unauthorized to an anonymous caller; access requires an OCPI credentials token exchanged
    bilaterally with Pod. Pod publishes no human documentation, no OpenAPI and no onboarding path for this API — the module
    list the service returns about itself is the only contract.'
