UL Solutions has introduced a new certification programme designed to validate vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology, ensuring compatibility and safety for electric vehicle charging systems that can feed power back into the grid. The initiative aims to address growing demand as more drivers seek to integrate their EVs into smart energy networks, potentially offering cost savings and grid stability benefits. With energy markets evolving, the programme could help standardize testing and certification for V2G equipment, reducing risks for both consumers and utilities. Industry observers suggest this move may accelerate adoption of bidirectional charging solutions in the coming years.
