EVGrid Assist: Accelerating the Transition will provide technical assistance and inform research and development on vehicle-grid integration (VGI) to facilitate the rapid deployment of electric vehicles and the associated charging infrastructure by minimizing the impacts to the electric grid and helping electric utilities and regulators make planning and policy decisions. EVGrid Assist technical assistance will:
- Increase the stakeholder VGI knowledge base
- Provide pathways for stronger VGI coordination between electric utilities, regulators, manufacturers and technology providers, and other stakeholders
- Identify key VGI challenges and opportunities to address them
- Begin driving actions to resolve barriers to VGI and the rapid deployment of the national charging network
