Discover how bidirectional charging unlocks new energy solutions, from V2G to V2H, enhancing grid stability, cutting costs, and supporting renewables.
What: 6 new ESBs connected to 60 kW bidirectional DC fast chargers as part of a pilot program in partnership with SDG&E and Nuvve Where: Cajon Valley Union School
As a stand-alone power source, the PairTree solar charging system is perfect for rural, off-grid locations, as well as remote concert
Vehicle-to-Grid Charging Through V2G, bidirectional charging could be used for demand cost reduction and/or participation in utility demand response programs as part of a
The project is aimed at demonstrating how EVs equipped with rooftop solar panels and bidirectional charging can contribute to community needs instead of simply sending
School bus batteries that are fully charged can power buildings or critical operations during emergencies at sites without power. By connecting your buses to a solar and storage
With bidirectional charging, an EV can return energy to the grid, a home, or a large home device, such as a refrigerator. EV drivers
Bidirectional charging can also save you money since you can charge your EV''s battery during off-peak hours and then use that stored electricity
Because they operate on controlled and predictable schedules, fleets like school buses, car rentals, public transportation, and trucking companies can use bidirectional
In Odell, Oregon – located in the windy, storm-tossed Columbia River Gorge – a project that would use a bidirectional electric school bus and solar microgrid to create a school
The project uses bidirectional charging technology from Virginia-based Fermata Energy, whose artificial intelligence-optimized platform calculates the best times to charge and
With bidirectional charging, you can use power stored in your EV''s battery as an energy source when the grid has the highest demand and electricity is most expensive.
A Blue Bird electric school bus, owned by Boston Public Schools, charges from a bidirectional EV charger in the Dorchester neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts. (Boston
Bidirectional Charging As electric vehicles (EVs) evolve from simple modes of transport into energy platforms, a powerful technology is
The California Energy Commission (CEC), through its Clean Transportation Program, has granted a $2.9 million award to a project team led by The Mobility House to
Explore off-grid EV charging station types—AC, DC & hybrid OGCS—and discover benefits like energy independence, savings &
Electric school buses, serving as mobile microgrids, can reduce air pollution, cut diesel use, support the grid and provide backup power during outages, especially in
This Electric School Bus (ESB) Planning Guide provides a step-by-step process for bus fleet electrification. Users can start at the beginning or dive into a specific step given their individual
Bidirectional EV charging allows power to flow both ways: from the grid to your electric vehicle and back from the vehicle to the grid or
Bidirectional charging technology allows EVs to draw power from the grid (or from the owner''s solar installation) for charging, or they
