The agenda, annotated

We read the whole programme so you don't have to

All 14 sessions, each with our own note on why it matters, who it's for, and what to read first.

One session, as it appears Day 1 ·09:40 ·Main Contactless GbE Inside Existing EV Charging Connectors Chargalytics context High-speed data (Gigabit Ethernet) inside the connector is the enabler for ISO 15118-20, Plug & Charge, and future V2G telemetry — but retrofitting it without touching existing pins is a hard mechanical and EMI problem. Anyone running large CCS/NACS fleets should ask whether this is backward-compatible with deployed hardware or requires new connector tooling.
