Abstract
EXPy provides a native Python interface into the LF Energy EVerest V2G protocol stack. The protocol stack is implemented in C/C++ and compiled into shared object libraries. EXPy provides the Python Ctypes translation of the C/C++ libraries for use with pure Python software. This project eliminates the need for integrating Python with third-party communications applications and greatly reduces the code base and improves performance. The other major benefit is the ability for EXPy to support new EXI based protocols as additional V2G standards are produced (e.g. upgrade from ISO 15118-2 to ISO 15118-20).
