Cars Powering Detroit's Electric Grid! The Vehicle-to-Grid Forum will Feature Real-Time, Utility-Coordinated, Standards-Based V2G Demonstrations
Three-day conference plus demos in Detroit to help drive the future of V2G in the U.S.
DTE Energy's acceleration of this potential is spotlighted at the 4th V2G Business, Policy & Technology Forum October 22-24, 2024 in Detroit. Convening top industry technologists from the automotive, electric utility and grid services sectors, the event showcases ground-breaking successes in the development and implementation of V2G systems being demonstrated for scale up across the United States. Hosted by the American Center for Mobility (ACM), this event concentrates V2G stakeholders working on mass deployment strategies for V2G, building on national and international standards, innovative regulatory frameworks and policies which call for near-term adoption into utility rates and programs.
"In order for V2G to reach mass adoption, implementation must be based on industry-developed, certified open standards," said John Holmes, V2G Forum steering committee member and Sr. Principal Energy Advisor for American Honda Motor Co., Inc. "Without standards, the entire sector will be limited to individually created vendor-specific systems. Leveraging Honda's 10 years of VGI involvement, the V2G Forum will highlight the importance of standards-based V2G, now available in this country, and how it is ready to support commercial operations."
The V2G Forum represents the nation's first event to host live demonstrations of standards-based, grid-connected V2G systems in operation at a facility. The industry's first offerings of grid interoperable technologies will utilize equipment from test tool manufacturers, multiple charger companies, automotive OEMs and grid services coordinators to showcase the V2G platforms in action. This will be the first time in the U.S. that fully functional, live-grid V2G systems are being demonstrated utilizing nationally and internationally established standards-based operations to clearly convey industry readiness to support scalability.
Historically, the lack of V2G standards harmonization has delayed mass adoption. Working together with the Joint Office of Energy and Transportation, electricity public utility commissions and industry, the sector has succeeded in reaching consensus in use cases and business models which simplify the complexity of V2G, enabling it to systematically support improvements in grid operations.
The V2G Forum unites utilities, automakers, charging network operators and others to celebrate successes realized in the continuing work to achieve the many benefits of V2G's promise.
