CharIN and Task 53 Forge Strategic Partnership focusing on bidirectional charging systems

Driving Innovation Through Strategic Collaboration

This partnership focuses on leveraging the strengths of CharIN and Task 53 to achieve mutual goals in the bidirectional charging domain. Key collaborative activities include:

Identifying and Addressing Standards Gaps: Both organizations will collaborate to pinpoint and resolve gaps in standards and regulations, paving the way for seamless bidirectional charging adoption.

Joint Testing Efforts: Testing activities will be organized at prominent facilities like the JRC (Joint Research Centre) and Argonne National Laboratory. CharIN will be kept informed of developments to ensure coordination on dates, sites, and objectives.

Information Exchange and Knowledge Sharing: The partnership emphasizes the sharing of research, data, and other resources to accelerate progress in bidirectional charging.

A unified voice for bidirectional charging

Regular meetings, coordinated communication, and joint participation in industry events are at the heart of this partnership. Both parties aim to amplify the importance of bidirectional charging by organizing workshops, webinars, and content to disseminate their findings effectively.

Ensuring a sustainable future

Task 53, known for its global focus on the technical challenges of bidirectional charging, brings extensive expertise in testing and standards alignment. This partnership aligns with CharIN's mission to advance interoperable and sustainable EV charging solutions worldwide.

This Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) sets a framework for collaboration, effective until the end of Task 53’s forecasted duration in 2027, with an option for renewal. It signifies both organizations' dedication to fostering innovation and achieving a cleaner, more connected future through electric mobility.
