EVs to return power to grid?

Global e-mobility leader ABB announced supply of its bi-directional charging technology to a Vehicle-To-Grid (V2G) partnership project.

As part of a contract with France’s DREEV, a joint venture between Électricité de France (EDF) and Nuvve, which specializes in intelligent charging for EVs, ABB will supply its new 11 kW bi-directional charging technology, specially designed for V2G.
“ABB’s solution integrated with DREEV software technology will enable EV drivers to export surplus power back to the grid. With potential to generate up to 20€/EV/month, V2G thereby reduces the total cost of ownership and further boosts the adoption of EVs. Bi-directional chargers also help smooth the flow of uneven generation of electricity from renewable sources such as solar and wind,” an official statement said.
