V2G Leaders Europe 2026
V2G Leaders Europe 2026 will take place on November 24, 2026, at the Radisson Collection Hotel in Brussels, Belgium. The annual summit brings together stakeholders from the vehicle-to-grid (V2G) ecosystem for discussions on bidirectional charging, electric vehicle integration, grid flexibility and the development of V2G markets in Europe.
The 2026 agenda focuses on the transition from V2G pilot projects toward broader commercial deployment. Sessions examine European deployment, national implementation pathways, regulatory frameworks, emerging business models and the role of smart and bidirectional charging in managing grid congestion, peak demand and renewable energy integration.
A major part of the program addresses interoperability, standards, testing and certification. Discussions include ISO 15118-20, AC and DC multiparty testing, international cooperation and the development of a minimum viable interoperability stack for bidirectional charging across different markets.
The summit also explores V2G applications for grid operators, digital aggregation platforms, vehicle-to-home and vehicle-to-grid services, fleet and depot charging, and the perspectives of vehicle manufacturers. The program features representatives from European institutions, automakers, charging companies, energy companies, grid operators, technology providers and research organizations.
The event concludes with a dedicated closing session and a cocktail reception, providing opportunities for participants to exchange ideas and build connections across the V2G and smart-charging industry. The summit is produced by Lighthouse Institute AG.
