vehicle-to-grid
Octopus Energy’s Octopus Power Pack, the UK’s first mass-market V2G tariff, offers free charging to drivers, enabling savings of over £850 per year compared to standard tariffs
ev.energy will continue to connect EVs and chargers to its virtual power plant and enable vehicle-to-grid services
Net zero is achievable before 2050, but uncertainties demand immediate action, the ESO has said today
A collaboration between Octopus Energy and ESO has unveiled the cost-effective potential of V2G technology in balancing the UK grid
EVs will be connected with the UK’s grid through the balancing mechanism
Nearly 135 EV batteries store and send power back to the grid when the supply is low
The project, ran by Western Power Distribution and CrowdCharge, aims to demonstrate how EVs will be able to provide V2G services in the future
The loan will support The Mobility House’s vehicle-to-grid technology, enabling EVs to be connected to the power grid to provide various grid-stabilising services
New infrastructure will interconnect up to 700 EVs and in doing so, be capable of providing ultra-fast grid services to the transmission network operator
Good Energy, Honda Motor Europe, The University of Salford and Upside Energy, say EV owners could make the saving by storing electricity in their car’s battery and sending it back to the grid when required
