V2X: CONSIDERATIONS & CONCLUSIONS WHITE PAPER
This paper is both an overview of the current state of the EV charging space and Kitu’s assessment on what path forward the industry should take. Our stances and suggestions are based on the use of current technologies, minimal disruption of the current EV charging infrastructure, and a preference for market-based solutions where appropriate.

V2X: Considerations and Conclusions
Learn More
This white paper outlines our vision for ensuring that vehicle-to-everything (V2X) systems in the United States are implemented to meet the needs of consumers, service providers, manufacturers, and importantly, the integrity of the electric grid.
Purpose
As key leaders in electrifying transportation and the grid, we acknowledge the urgent need to tackle diverging control systems for eMobility and the electric grid. With EVs becoming more prevalent and bidirectional charging growing, now is the moment to create a unified V2X integration approach.
Considerations
We neutrally outline key eMobility/electric grid stakeholders, essential grid impacts, security concerns, and high-level tech aspects. Our aim is to spotlight communication standards aligning with the national electric grid, utilizing NIST-established systems.
Conclusions
We draw conclusions where we emphasize the potential harm that divergence of communication standards could cause to consumers, the commercial opportunities for monetizing bidirectional EVs, and the overall security and reliability of the electric grid.
