SAN JOSE San Jose, city, United States
San Jose (sănəzā`, săn hōzā`), city (1990 pop. 782,248), seat of Santa Clara co., W central Calif.; founded 1777, inc. 1850.
, Calif. -- Coulomb coulomb (k`lŏm) [for C. A. de Coulomb], abbr. coul or C, unit of electric charge. The absolute coulomb, the current U.S.  Technologies and V2Green today announced a technology and marketing partnership to create an intelligent charging infrastructure for plug-in vehicles. Coulomb's innovative Smartlet[TM] Charging Stations and Communications Network The transmission channels interconnecting all client and server stations as well as all supporting hardware and software.  provide convenient, easy-to-use charging stations, delivering bi-directional energy metering and user authentication See authentication. . V2Green's smart grid technology establishes two-way communication between plug-in vehicles and the grid, allowing utilities to control charging behavior in real-time, within parameters set by vehicle owners. By joining forces, Coulomb and V2Green are able to offer a charging infrastructure that is effortless for drivers and responsive to the needs of the grid. Both companies can be seen at the Plug-In 2008 Conference and Exposition July 23 - 24 in San Jose, Calif.

"The wide-scale adoption of plug-in vehicles requires both a public charging infrastructure and charging management solutions that allow the grid to support added load," said John Clark, president and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. , V2Green. "By combining the strengths of our technologies, Coulomb and V2Green will help ensure the successful commercial introduction of plug-in vehicles."

The Coulomb-V2Green partnership will involve development of an open Application Programming Interface (API), interoperability testing and joint marketing.

"This partnership brings the best of two worlds -- smart grid charging management software from V2Green and the sophisticated charging infrastructure of Coulomb's ChargePoint[TM] Network," said Richard Lowenthal, CEO of Coulomb Technologies.
