Grid balancing services with electric vehicles

UPDATE: To enter the webinar on Microsoft Teams click here

The uptake of electric vehicles (EV) is accelerating across the globe and paving the way for clean mobility. Electric vehicles can play a key role in the energy transition with its massive storage potential and charging capacity. Orchestrated in a virtual power plant, EVs provide a clean and distributed alternative to conventional power plants in keeping the grid in balance.

The webinar will bring together leaders and innovators in the e-mobility and grid balancing ecosystem, to share their ideas and to discuss the role of their solutions and organization when it comes to balancing services enabled by EVs.

Host: Jelle Vastert (former Tesla, Kiwi Power and Lyft).
