These include, (1) EV connectors; (2) user terminals; (3) internet connections; (4) maintenance terminals from physical access or disassembly. We have been studying potential impacts to the power grid. Additionally, an Idaho National Laboratory team found some systems were vulnerable to malicious firmware updates.

Department of Energy (DOE), the growing demand from plug-in electric vehicles and many other technologies that require electricity could increase the load on our power grids by up to 38% by 2050. Power companies and government agencies are working hard to meet this demand, but it’s a challenging task. How Does V2G Work?
