DETROIT, MI, UNITED STATES, October 2, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — Could this be the end of grid outages? The reality of Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technologies holds tremendous potential for modernizing and hardening the nation’s electrical grid. Analysis by experts at E3 and EPRI indicate that V2G technology can provide $671 million in annual grid benefits, based on 3.3 million EVs in 2030 (medium EV forecast) with half of those EVs expected to be V2G-enabled. Indeed, V2G technology can provide 2–10 times the value of managed charging alone.* Additionally, automakers are increasingly focused on enabling V2G technologies, which represents a win-win for automakers, consumers, and the environment.
