A new certification program for vehicle-to-grid (V2G) alternating current (AC) technology is accelerating the adoption of bidirectional charging systems. The initiative aims to standardize safety, interoperability, and performance benchmarks for devices enabling electric vehicles to supply power back to the grid. Industry experts suggest this could help balance energy demand, reduce strain on power systems, and integrate renewable energy more efficiently. With growing interest in smart grid solutions, the program may play a key role in expanding V2G’s real-world applications.
