In one experiment involving a large lithium-ion battery, the control computer fully charged or discharged the unit in a matter of minutes, leaving no spare capacity to regulate the grid. In principle, this problem might have been solved with software to govern the charging and discharging. A strong V2G patron has yet to emerge.

GMs program relies on lithium-ion battery technology that Gioia called "cost, weight and package prohibitive." When Lutz first proposed creating an electric car in 2003, the idea "bombed" inside GM, he says. "I Lutz said lithium-ion batteries must be improved to hold a bigger charge and deliver the charge gradually.
