The Issue
Project Innovation
This project will advance and demonstrate an innovative DC-coupled bidirectional charging system for electric vehicles (EVs) that allow multiple EVs to discharge electricity simultaneously through a Rule 21 compliant grid forming inverter. The DC multi-vehicle platform for bidirectional charging will be demonstrated at three sites in California located in low income, disadvantaged, and Tribal communities. In partnership with community based organizations, each site will demonstrate discharging of energy stored in EV batteries to power public buildings and increase community resilience during outages or intentional events.
