Grid up! Regulation rewrite boosts bi-directional charging in Australia to enable V2G, V2H

EV Central

Vehicle-to-home and vehicle-to-grid charging using electric vehicles as battery storage is set to finally get rolling in Australia. That promises to make it easier and more affordable to use the high-voltage battery pack of an EV to power a house and an electric car and return electricity to the grid for profit. and AS4777.2

Sandy solution for renewable energy storage; Thermal Energy Storage System

Green Car Congress

Australia-based Latent Heat Storage has developed a low cost thermal energy storage system based on the latent heat properties of silicon derived from sand. Renewable energy sources generally spill energy due to supply and demand mismatches, so we’ve designed the TESS device to capture this ‘spilt’ energy for later use or release to the grid.
