Vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology promises to turn electric cars into batteries on wheels, helping households slash electricity bills, power their homes and even earn money by selling energy back to the grid.
But how close are we to making this a reality for everyday Australian EV owners?
Recorded live at Everything Electric Sydney, The Driven Podcast brings together experts from Hyundai, Origin Energy, Amber Electric and Net Zero Engineering Solutions to explore the opportunities and challenges of bidirectional charging.
We discuss the difference between V2H and V2G, what’s holding back widespread adoption, the challenges of interoperability and grid standards, and what car manufacturers need to do to support the technology without compromising battery warranties.
Panelists:
– Portia Rooney, Founder and Director, Net Zero Engineering Solutions
– Scott Nargar, Senior Manager of Future Mobility and Government Relations, Hyundai Motor Company Australia
– Daryl Wong, Head of Charging Product and Performance, Origin Energy
