This two-phase solicitation intends to fund research and innovation that complements and supports actions that automakers, charging providers, utilities, automation service providers, regulators, and other stakeholders are taking to advance VGI in these broad areas. Specifically, the solicitation will seek projects to address VGI knowledge gaps; high costs of V2X or bidirectional charging equipment, as compared to unidirectional charging; and the lack of access to cost-effective, accurate, and flexible submetering solutions.
