SUPPORT Partner
Under the CharIN (Charging Interface Initiative e. V.) umbrella, cross-industry stakeholders like automakers, charging station manufacturers, component suppliers, energy providers, grid operators, and many others continue moving towards interoperable charging, where vehicles, chargers, and software systems work together and to make the user experience reliable, easy and smooth.
CharIN´s holistic approach is not limited to passenger cars. Its international community is comprised of leading global companies representing every link to the e-mobility value chain and multiple experts who have been working together as a team to drive the requirements of charging all kinds of electric vehicles.
Shaping Smart, Bidirectional Charging: Vehicle to Grid – V2G
The energy world of tomorrow is intelligent and sustainable. The technology is moving quickly. While only a few EV models on the market today are V2G-capable, most new vehicles are expected to include this functionality in the near future. Charging station and vehicle manufacturers have been working on V2G development for years, and the first wave of products is now arriving. The backbone of this evolution is the ISO 15118-20 standard, which governs V2G functions for DC charging.
Discover how CharIN advances Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technology through global standards, interoperability testing, and industry projects. Learn about our role in ISO 15118-20, partnerships, and upcoming V2G Testivals shaping the future of smart, bidirectional charging.

Task 53 is a non-profit initiative within the Electric Vehicle Technology Collaboration Program (EV-TCP) of the International Energy Agency (IEA). Its goal is to promote global interoperability for bidirectional charging of electric vehicles (V2G) through the collaboration of charging station and electric vehicle manufacturers and distribution network operators and internationally recognized laboratories and research institutions such as the Joint Research Center of the EC, Argonne National Laboratories (USA), Dekra, Elaad and KERI (South Korea). The activities of Task 53 focus on research, standardization, testing and the promotion of V2G technology to ensure the worldwide implementation of interoperable charging systems and to contribute to the specification of the ISO standard ISO 15118-20. Task 53 is open to public organizations, industry partners and academic institutions and operates as a non-profit organization. Currently (as of May 2025), Task 53 has 12 countries and the European Commission, 27 partners from industry, academia and NGOs, 3 partners with observer status as well as CharIn and VGIC as partners with a Memorandum of Understanding.
