"This is the first top-level design document for vehicle network interaction in China." Li Lili, deputy director of Tsinghua Sichuan Energy Internet Research Institute and Optical Storage Direct soft Application Technology Research Institute, stressed in an interview with China Energy News. Mr. Li's team led the drafting of the research that underpinned the policy document. He said that the vehicle network interaction is a complex system project across industries and departments, and the release of the "Implementation Opinions" will play a very key role in the overall promotion of various work by the state and local governments.

There are many participants in vehicle network interaction, including electric vehicle users, charge and discharge service operators, electric vehicle load aggregation, virtual power plant operators, power grid enterprises, and power trading institutions. The top-level design and system coordination at the policy end provide a guarantee for the large-scale promotion of vehicle network interaction.

Liu Yongdong, deputy secretary-general of the China Electricity Council, also pointed out that vehicle network interaction is a project of gathering sand into a tower, and realizing large-scale vehicle network interaction requires the top-level design of the government and the cooperation of all parties. He believes that in addition to policies, vehicle network interaction also faces problems in scale, mode, technology, standards and other aspects.

The "Implementation Opinions" have clarified the responsible departments of each key link of vehicle network interaction. Specifically, the National Development and Reform Commission and the National Energy Administration coordinated the top-level design of vehicle network interaction, actively promoted the construction of supporting policies, electricity prices and market mechanisms, and strengthened guidance and supervision. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the National Energy Administration promote new energy vehicles and charging and replacement facilities to accelerate the application of intelligent and orderly charging functions. The National Standardization Administration Committee organized the standardization Technical Committee of electric vehicle charging facilities in the energy industry and the National Automobile Standardization Technical Committee to accelerate the construction of the interactive standard system of the vehicle network and guide the cooperation on relevant international standards.
