V2G Business, Policy & Technology Forum

The V2G Business, Policy & Technology Forum is a professional conference on vehicle-to-grid technology in North America. It is run by the Smart Grid Observer, an online information portal and newsletter for the smart energy industry.

The forum presents itself as a neutral, non-commercial meeting ground where stakeholders work on V2G standardization and adoption. A program committee curates the sessions, which look at obstacles to implementation, business models, policy and enabling technologies, and at strategies that grid operators and other players can use.

Beyond the conference sessions, companies can sponsor, speak, or present systems in demonstration and exhibit spaces, and the format is built around networking and relationship building. The forum is held in a spring and a fall session.

Exhibitors and demonstrators are V2G technology and equipment vendors, including providers of energy storage, communications and power control solutions.

Executives and grid operations engineers at utilities, EV program and fleet managers, charging station owners and network operators, EV manufacturers, regulators and standards experts, consultants, researchers and investors.
