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…
Volume 2 | Issue 2
This issue launches our 2026 Policy Series by exploring a critical question: Will bidirectional EVs remain behind the meter, or will they be allowed to utilize their full capability and export power beyond the meter, operating as dynamic grid resources? We also take a close look at a new industry white paper, what it gets…
Volume 2 | Issue 1
Welcome to 2026! This first edition of V2G News for the new year focuses on two essentials as bidirectional charging moves from pilots toward early commercialization: how charging and discharging data is accessed, and what real-world evidence tells us about V2G value. Our first feature explores the digital backbone of V2G, where data lives across…
Volume 1 | Issue 11
Welcome to the final edition of V2G News for 2025! 🎉 ✨ 🥂 It’s been an extraordinary year for bidirectional charging, one where V2G shifted from the edges of the conversation to a central pillar of how we think about grid reliability, customer value, and the future of electrification. In this issue, I’m stepping out…
Volume 1 | Issue 10
This edition features two deep dives: an exclusive interview with Ford’s Dave McCreadie on how one of the largest automakers is approaching V2G, and our assessment of DOE’s Vehicle-Grid Integration report released earlier this year, what it contributes, where it remains cautious, and why meaningful federal coordination on V2G is still largely aspirational rather than…
Volume 1 | Issue 9
This edition features the third installment of our V2G Value Series, where we examine why V2G’s clear societal benefits still aren’t reflected in project revenues, a classic missing-money problem slowing commercial adoption. Paired with this is new academic research showing that V2G doesn’t just help integrate renewables; it can drive new wind and solar investment…
Volume 1 | Issue 8
In this issue, Steve shares his key takeaways fresh from the October 2025 V2G Forum in Detroit, where more than 200 industry leaders, from utilities to automakers, made clear that the conversation has shifted from if to how V2G will scale. We also unpack SEPA’s new interconnection roadmap, a practical guide for regulators and utilities…
Volume 1 | Issue 7
In this edition of V2G News, we tackle the big roadblock: interoperability. Until EVs, chargers, and grid systems can speak the same language, scaling will remain slow and fragmented. Our feature breaks down what true interoperability looks like and how industry leaders are closing the gaps. We also spotlight a new academic study (Electric Vehicles…
Volume 1 | Issue 6
The last decade was about proving V2G works. The next will be about removing the barriers that keep it from scaling. Two feature articles in this edition capture that shift: flexible grid connections, which turn "no" into "yes, if" for V2G projects, and Massachusetts' V2X pilot, which tests how cars can power more than just…
Volume 1 | Issue 5
⚡ Welcome to V2G News Volume 1, Issue 5! In a past article, we traced the growth of rooftop solar to understand what lessons might help V2G scale. In this issue, we consider the flip side: what resistance from utilities might look like, and how the V2G community can prepare and respond. We also preview…
