Summary:Road transportation is one of the main sources of environmental pollution. Electrification seems like the ideal solution for reducing CO 2 emissions, while maintaining all the advantages of modern means of transportation. The shift to electric vehicles needs to be accompanied by an appropriate telecommunications network, which is responsible for the reliable transmission of large volumes of information associated with the consumption of electricity. This work presents the development and implementation of such a network, based on the principles of Vehicle to Grid (V2G) technology. The network characteristics in real space and time environment are studied and its performance is evaluated.
