Q&A with Erika Myers, Executive Director CharIN Inc.: Testing and Refining EV Charging Standards

Erika Myers, Executive Director CharIN Inc., shares valuable insights in the Charged EV Fleet & Infrastrucutre News.

While it isn’t a standards development organization per se, CharIN works with standards bodies and firms in the EV charging industry to help refine new standards, and to test vehicles and EVSE for interoperability.
CharIN’s North America Charging Interoperability Task Force, which currently has over 300 members, is working to help standardize Tesla’s NACS charging system (aka SAE J3400).
CharIN is working closely with ChargeX, SAE and a range of EVSE firms to establish a set of common error codes as a tool to improve the reliability of public charging infrastructure.
CharIN is also at the center of efforts to finalize the Megawatt Charging System, which is expected to be a game-changer for heavy-duty EV charging, and to develop standards for other up-and-coming technologies such as V2G and Plug & Charge.
