Emporia’s energy management system prepares for the bidirectional EV charging future

Charged EVs

Once an EV can double as a stationary storage device, it will take its place as part of an energy ecosystem that includes rooftop solar and energy management—and could even become a source of revenue for owners and a valuable grid-balancing resource for utilities. We can turn on smart plugs.

Renault shows the future of bidirectional charging

My Energi

While initial reports were quick to praise its French charm, 248-mile driving range and 3D printed customisable accessories, the standard inclusion of an 11kW AC bidirectional charger fell somewhat under the radar. Of course, there are already a few DC V2G solutions, but they have their limitations.

The Future of Charging: Bidirectional V2G

MyEVOnline

After you connect your car’s battery to a DC rapid charging station, AC or alternating current from the grid is converted and stored inside the vehicle in the form of DC or direct current. For this purpose, you either have an AC-DC converter inside the EV or a built-in converter inside the charger.
