MQTT Integration

The MQTT integration allows you to send measurement data and transactions to Pleevi, and receive optimized charging schedules, using our MQTT broker.

This is a bidirectional integration: you publish data to Pleevi topics and subscribe to topics where we publish optimized schedules.

How It Works

1. Publish energy measurements and transactions to your site's dedicated MQTT topics.
2. Subscribe to your site's advice topic to receive optimized charging schedules every 15 minutes.

Connection Details

• Broker URL: mqtt.pleevi.ai
• Credentials: Provided by Pleevi during onboarding. Contact support@pleevi.ai if you haven't received them.

info

The MQTT topics for your site are included in the site payload when you create or retrieve a site. View API Docs.

Detailed Guides

When to Use MQTT

MQTT is a good choice when:

• You need real-time bidirectional communication.
• Your system already supports MQTT (e.g., a local PLC, EMS platform, or IoT gateway).
• You want to receive schedules as soon as they are published, without polling.

tip

MQTT can be combined with the OCPP Broker: send measurements and transactions and receive schedules over MQTT, while the broker identifies drivers from their badges.
