The main difference is that in OSEN, server's identity is authenticated using Anonymous EAP-TLS (and DAA), and still protecting the client's identity (identity is generated based on a private key which is part of the TPM HW module). See https://www.commscope.com/globalassets/digizuite/1527-wp-hotspot-2-0.pdf for an overview and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_Anonymous_Attestation for details on how TPM is used (DAA). As this is mainly for server identity, it's usage is limited for provisioning only, and disallowed during operation, typically using a separate SSID.

In OWE, no authentication is provided, an attacker can impersonate an AP successfully. It's main purpose is to provide security after the exchange.
