Scaling Interoperable Vehicle-to-Grid Bidirectional Charging

UK registered organisations can apply for grant funding to develop and demonstrate interoperable bidirectional charging solutions (V2X technology) that enable electric vehicles to flexibly charge and discharge power back to the grid. This £15 million funding programme supports collaborative projects lasting 18-31 months, with individual grants ranging from £2 million to £7.5 million. Successful projects must deliver working prototypes and evidence of multiparty interoperable V2X systems operating in real-world environments, accelerating the adoption of EV flexibility services across the UK energy infrastructure.
