If you meant to go back and read one of these articles, or simply…
Volume 2 | Issue 13
Welcome to the latest edition of V2G News. This issue continues our V2G Insights series on bidirectional charging in the energy transition, with Part Two focused on how mobile batteries become dependable, dispatchable grid resources. We also review a new UL report on the evolving standards architecture for DC and AC bidirectional systems, and cover…
Volume 2 | Issue 12
In this edition of V2G News, we look at EVs not simply as new electric load, but as part of a much larger storage ecosystem. Our V2G Insights article launches a two-part series on bidirectional charging in the energy transition, beginning with the idea that EV batteries can become an essential layer of grid flexibility…
Volume 2 | Issue 11
This issue of V2G News features one of our most important V2G Insights articles of the year: a close look at compensation structures for bidirectional EVs. As V2G moves from pilots toward early programs, payment design may prove just as important as the technology itself. In V2G Intelligence, we review the new MassCEC V2X research…
Volume 2 | Issue 10
This issue of V2G News focuses on one of the biggest barriers to scaling bidirectional charging: interoperability. This edition explores how CharIN and IEA Task 53 are helping move the industry from custom integrations and pilot projects toward common infrastructure capable of supporting mass deployment, including the testing frameworks and validation infrastructure needed to ensure…

Residential V2G is gaining real traction, but the path to scale is becoming clearer, and more demanding. In last week’s edition, residential V2G pioneer Frances Bell made it clear: the technology works, deployments are underway, and the challenge now is execution. In this edition, we build on that with a closer look at the evolution…
Volume 2 | Issue 7
In this edition of V2G News, residential V2G pioneer Frances Bell of Bidirectional Energy provides a grounded view of where residential bidirectional charging stands today. The technology works. Deployments are happening. The real challenge now is execution—getting systems installed efficiently and delivering a seamless pathway to unlock V2G value at scale. We also break down…
Volume 2 | Issue 6
This issue opens with the second installment of our 2026 V2G Policy Series, examining why predictable, bankable revenue streams remain one of the biggest missing pieces for moving from demonstration projects to durable market offerings. We also look at another critical dimension of the transition: consumer behavior. A new academic study reviewed in this issue…
Volume 2 | Issue 5
This edition of V2G News moves the conversation from theory to deployment. Our third Industry Leader Interview features Kevin Matthews, Head of Electrification at First Student, one of North America’s leading student transportation providers, sharing practical insight on scaling electric school buses and the real-world pathway to vehicle-to-grid integration. We also publish our second State…
Volume 2 | Issue 4
In this edition of V2G News, we examine what we now know about V2G's impact on battery health and degradation risk, unpack a major Berkeley-led study that quantifies where V2G value truly comes from, and what can erase it, and track a series of OEM and utility announcements signaling real commercial momentum. From Tesla’s AC-based…
Volume 2 | Issue 3
This edition of V2G News continues our focus on how bidirectional charging is moving from pilots toward real markets. We’re pleased to feature our second industry leader interview, this time with Russell Vare of The Mobility House, who brings decades of experience in EV–grid integration and shares a clear-eyed perspective on what it will take…
