Electric vehicle charging station guide

A presentation in 2008 going over decisioning between conductive charging (J1772) and inductive charging (J1773) as well as changes in the charging connector. J1772 won out over the inductive charging – during the EV Mandate Era there were competing charging standards that interfered with EV adoption. It means conductive charging won over inductive charging, and there was a connector change.

Smart grid interaction is now seen as a high priority.

J2836 Objectives

J1772 extension cords
  • Smart charging (active load management)
  • Bi-directional energy transfer (V2G)
  • Synchronize with new J1772
  • New vehicle architectures: PHEV, EV and plug-in fuel cell (PFCV)
  • New battery technologies and packaging methods
  • New utility and customer premise equipment options
  • Advanced metering infrastructure (AMI)
  • Home-area networks (HAN)
  • New communication options
  • The primary purpose of J2836 is grid-optimized energy transfer for plug-in electric vehicles — that is, ensuring that vehicle operators have sufficient energy for driving, while enabling the delivery of that energy to vehicles in methods that offer operators a lower cost of energy and maximizes grid reliability.
  • The purpose of J2847 is to document the set of use cases that will generate functional & non-functional requirements, leading to system requirements in J2836.
