Information
Definition
ISO 15118-7 defines wireless communication requirements for network and application layers in the vehicle-to-grid communication interface. On EVCP Info, it links related terminology to the relevant regulatory, standards or compliance framework used by UK-focused audiences.
Why it matters
It helps clarify future wireless communication pathways between EVs and charging infrastructure. For UK users, it helps separate legal requirements, recognised standards, good practice and manufacturer claims when reviewing EV charging equipment.
