PRLog -- To help the industry achieve the full potential of Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G), the first annual
V2G Business, Policy & Technology Forum, February 28 - March 1, 2023 in Los Angeles will convene top industry players, working groups, utility professionals and others who are focused on the successful development and implementation of V2G in the United States. Hosted by Southern California Edison, this is a Forum for V2G stakeholders to come together and work on accelerating V2G standardization and adoption.
Significant challenges for V2G include standards harmonization, identifying use cases and business models, the complexity of V2G versus other DERs, competing jurisdictions and more. Working through these issues and enabling utilities, automakers, charging network operators and others to achieve the V2G promise is the main driver for the V2G Forum.
