and the Tokyo Institute of Technology are developing a smart charging system to exploit wind power produced at night to charge electric vehicles. The technology developed by the alliance is expected to help reduce this investment burden, which has prevented a wider adoption of wind power generation. Mitsubishi Corp.
Under normal conditions, this stabilizing technology will be particularly important as the power grid is expected to rely more and more on variable renewable resources such as wind and solar technologies.

Utilities will play a pivotal role in turning EVs into energy storage assets that can return power to the grid when it is needed for grid balancing and boosting grid reliability and stability. In the not-so-distant future, the batteries in millions of EVs can become an integral component of a renewable energy ecosystem.
In the US, 36% of electricity is generated using renewables, including wind, solar, and hydropower, as well as non-CO2-emitting nuclear power. In Norway , which is the world leader in renewable energy use, 45% of electricity comes from hydropower, while Brazil in second place gets 32% of its total energy supply from biofuel and waste energy.
The degree of CO2 emission reduction in transport depends on the source of the electricity powering EVs. In a renewable grid, electricity comes from green sources — solar, wind, and hydropower. Renewable Grid Energy is Essential to Transport Decarbonization. However, it varies widely depending on location.
Similarly, EV owners can use their vehicles to power their homes during hours of peak demand and set the vehicle to recharge during hours of non-peak demand, such as early morning hours. Wind and solar energy are the most common renewable energy sources supplying energy to the EV charging sector. Integrating Renewables.

Renewable energy can also be under-utilized when the wind is blowing and the sun is shining, but demand is lower than supply. Eventually, unmanaged peak loads will push local infrastructure and generation resources beyond capacity and require upgrades. On the other hand, between peaks are periods of under-utilized capacity.
