Steps
Register with a V2G-PKI root operator — Hubject operates the original/primary V2G Root CA ecosystem used across the EU and US — to obtain the CPO/CPS role in the trust chain
Submit CSRs through the operator's EST interface to get ISO 15118 leaf certificates issued from the appropriate Sub CA
Confirm which ISO 15118 edition your chargers/vehicles support — 15118-2 (TLS-based Plug & Charge) is the baseline; 15118-20 (with full V2G/bidirectional support) is a separate, newer profile
Note the EU's AFIR mandates ISO 15118-2 for newly installed public AC charge points as of Jan 2026 and 15118-20 by Jan 2027 — treat Plug & Charge in the US as a voluntary customer-experience investment, not a compliance requirement, since there is no US statutory equivalent
Known gotchas
The 15118-2 vs 15118-20 distinction matters for hardware selection — verify which profile a charger's PKI stack actually implements before promising full V2G-capable Plug & Charge
The AFIR mandate dates above are EU regulation; don't apply that compliance deadline to a US site as if it were a legal requirement
