we need to name it.

The Survey paper formalises what makes EV–EV trading distinct from EV-to-station coordination. Six dimensions, 27 aspects, four technical capabilities — together they map the problem space that Papers 2 and 3 then solve.

022 / the frameworkWhat's different about EV–EV trading

Unlike EV-to-station coordination, EV–EV trading involves two mobile parties with independent journeys, diminishing energy levels, and waiting tolerances. The Survey identifies six coordination dimensions that capture this complexity, broken into 27 specific aspects, each addressable by one or more of four technical capabilities.

023 / market modelsThree market models — where EV–EV lives

The Survey situates EV–EV trading within the broader energy-trading taxonomy. P2P is where the two parties coordinate directly — and where the framework's mobility-aware aspects become essential.

Market model evolution — supply flexibility
From centralised one-way flow (utilities → consumers) to fully bidirectional peer-to-peer trading where any EV can be a provider or consumer at different moments.

Aspect coverage by each technical capability
Prediction touches the most aspects (17 of 27) — most coordination problems benefit from forecasting. Data sharing is most specialised (7), focused on the trust and scalability requirements of decentralised systems.
