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.
