Participation in the November meeting is open to all affected parties, including representatives of the automotive, electrotechnical, and utilities industries, relevant trade associations, standards development and conformity assessment organizations, government agencies, and academia.

Work to develop the standardization roadmap began in June, with representatives from more than forty leading organizations from the public and private sectors actively participating. To date, the work has been carried out electronically among seven working groups focused on energy storage systems, vehicle components, the vehicle-user interface, charging systems, communications, infrastructure installation, and education and training.

The November meeting will be the first opportunity to discuss and refine in a face-to-face setting an initial draft of the roadmap. The meeting will include both general sessions and breakout groups to look at the roadmap narratives relating to standards for electric vehicles, the built infrastructure and related support services. While in-person attendance is strongly encouraged, teleconference participation will also be available.

The preliminary draft agenda is available on the meeting event page.
