With a major utility like PG&E testing a solution as well, it could be soon that homeowners may have at the ready external sources for power shutdowns. In fact, there have been predictions of late that vehicle-to-grid bi-directional charging capability will one day be a requirement for all vehicle sales.

Then, as now, wind farms are operating off the world’s coasts—but not all of these offshore sites are connected to the mainland via underwater power cables. Because there’s no grid connection, the platforms will basically operate as small, isolated power grids and therefore have to handle any sudden surges in power.
