Solution

EV charging platform migration for CPOs

Use EV Cloud to migrate CPO infrastructure in phases, keep chargers online during transition, and avoid a risky big-bang CPMS or CSMS replacement.

EV Cloud map with site detail for staged CPO rollout

Best for

CPO teams that need staged migration, multi-backend routing, and a safer path away from a locked-in CPMS or CSMS.

Audience

Charge Point Operators modernizing a legacy charging backend.

Why this solution exists

This solution is built for operators replacing a legacy CPMS or CSMS without forcing every charger, backend, and business workflow to move at once. The focus is phased migration, rollback, and backend coexistence.

  • A direct backend replacement would force too much change at once.
  • Different charger groups need to migrate at different times.
  • Roaming, billing, and support workflows still depend on the current platform.
  • The team needs rollback options if rollout quality drops.

What the team gets

  • Run old and new backend systems in parallel during rollout.
  • Preserve charger connectivity while vendor and workflow changes happen behind the scenes.
  • Reduce migration risk without giving up long-term platform flexibility.
  • Move from pilot to production with a clearer commercial and technical sequence.
