Message

**Takafumi Anegawa**
President of CHAdeMO Association

First of all, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all of you for your understanding and continuous support for activities of CHAdeMO Association.
Since its establishment in 2010, CHAdeMO Association has continued efforts to support the spread of Electric vehicles and charging infrastructure in the world. This year, CHAdeMO has reached the 10 year anniversary, and it is an honer for me to be inaugurated as a president in the year of that milestone. I would like to thank the former President Mr. Shiga for driving the activities of the Association for eight years from 2011.

2010

In March, Toyota Motor Corporation, Nissan Motor Co. Ltd., Mitsubishi Motors Corporation, Fuji Heavy Industries Ltd., and Tokyo Electric Power Company, Inc. had formally established “CHAdeMO Association.” Mr. Tsunehisa Katsumata, chairman of TEPCO, was inaugurated as the first president of CHAdeMO. At the time 158 business entities and government bodies including 20 foreign companies from multiple sectors such as automakers, electric utility companies, charger and component manufacturers, charging service providers, etc. joined the Association. The Association aimed to support the diffusion of electric vehicles, which would contribute to reduction of CO2 emissions in the transport sector, and to take an active role in the standardisation of EV charging protocols.
In July, the first CHAdeMO Europe meeting was held, in which a decision was made to establish the European steering committee led by PSA, Nissan, Mitsubishi Motors, Think, Endesa, ESB, ABB and the City of Amsterdam.

“By 2025 V2G could provide additional revenues and cost savings of US$2 billion to global energy suppliers and offer consumers 15% savings on household energy bill”
ABI Research

A crucial element for a switch to renewables, V2X technology enables using EVs as both vehicles and portable batteries. With V2H devices, EVs can financial benefits to the EV owner:

Save costs by optimizing the energy usage (e.g. charge from PV and use later).
Make money by providing services to the Grid. CHAdeMO’s EVs are the only mass-produced cars readily capable of V2X.
