Description

Electric vehicles are becoming vital tools for grid stability and resilience. Our panelists will discuss the current state of vehicle-to-everything (V2X) integration that enables bidirectional energy flow, allowing EVs to support power systems during peak demand, outages and emergencies. This session examines how utilities, policymakers and automotive manufacturers can work together to harness EV batteries as distributed energy assets that enhance grid reliability while creating new value streams for vehicle owners.
