Launched in 2021 under the leadership of EDF Group and Dreev, a joint venture of EDF and Nuvve, the EVVE project is a groundbreaking initiative to deploy 800 V2G charging stations across Europe. The project aims to significantly reduce CO2 emissions by leveraging the power of electric vehicles to store low-carbon electricity, paving the way for new V2G functionalities using the Combo CCS European charging standard.

“Nuvve’s focus is to deploy its V2G technology to help Europe as it prepares to scale its power system,” said Xavier Moreau, EVP of Strategy at Nuvve. “With this EVVE project, Nuvve is among the first to use the Combo CCS standard for V2G. Aggregate pools of electric vehicles will become a valuable resource for grid operators to manage a system with a higher share of decarbonized yet variable energy sources.”

As part of this consortium, Nuvve will install approximately 100 charging stations, utilizing both CHAdeMO and CCS standards, which is another megawatt under management for Nuvve and represents a $400,000 capital expenditure. Nuvve is a leader in providing turnkey “V2G as a Service” solutions to corporate and public sector fleets, ensuring electric vehicles can seamlessly integrate into the energy grid to store and discharge electricity based on grid demands. Nuvve has operated the world’s first commercial V2G service for over eight years, providing Frequency Containment Reserve (FCR) services to the Danish TSO Energinet, and now brings this experience to the EVVE project.

Alongside Nuvve, six other new partners are now part of the EVVE project, including Altra (IVECO Group), BNP Paribas Mobility (represented by Arval and BNP Paribas Leasing Solutions), Enedis, IZIVIA, Stellantis, and Volkswagen Group France. Together, these companies are working to deploy a total of 800 bidirectional charging points for various applications across Europe. Supported by the European Union's Innovation Fund, EVVE aims to be a catalyst for V2G industrialization, giving proper signals to V2G value chain stakeholders, especially EV manufacturers, enabling massive deployment of large-scale V2G schemes in Europe.

This collaboration allows partners to test cutting-edge V2G technology, evaluate its benefits for customers like fleet operators, and contribute to a more flexible, sustainable energy system. To date, 250 V2G chargers have already been deployed, primarily in France and Denmark, showcasing the project’s ongoing progress.
