What Is V2G?

Views: 309
Los Angeles Air Force Base,
. . . will replace its entire non-tactical vehicle fleet with
. . . 42 electric vehicles.
Each of these vehicles will be able to export electricity from its batteries,
. . . back to the electric grid, providing what's called vehicle to grid (V2G) services. By plugging into bi-directional charging stations,
. . . linked through an advanced central control system.
A smaller project at the University of Delaware reported generating
. . . $110 per vehicle each month.

USA military alone has more than,
. . . 200,000 non-tactical vehicles in its fleet,
. . . nearly all of which could eventually provide valuable electricity storage services.
Now imagine that effect multiplied by members of surrounding military communities,
. . . all being able to save money, just by keeping their EV plugged in.

Taken to reasonable projections,
. . . V2G technology, could transform the electric vehicle market.
