Plug-in electric vehicles are a result of recent innovative ideas and technological developments in the world of electric vehicles which are promising and are an environmentally friendly vehicle. The plug-in electric vehicles receive energy from the power grid through the stations known as charging stations which suitably connect between the grid and the electric vehicles. The charging stations act as an alternate energy source to reduce the demand for grid. There is a need for standard communication protocols for managing EV charging (V1G) and V2G (vehicle-to-grid) applications. This facilitates in understanding and choosing the right standards for EV programs. This comprehensive chapter provides V2G (vehicle-to-grid) technology along with structures, components, communication standards and protocols. This chapter provides background information on how standard communication protocols and standards are used in today’s EV charging management and distributed energy resources applications. Here, an overview of general guidelines for selecting and operating these protocols is presented. This chapter is designed as a suitable supporting guide for future investigations that can analyse and understand the standards and protocols to select appropriate techniques for V2G communication effective implementation. At the end, it also highlighted the future challenges and further scope for the V2G technology.
