You could do V2G through the DC port of the vehicle—this is what we are doing with school buses here in California, where our charging station converts AC to DC and then connects to the DC port of the vehicle to provide power. Then it takes the DC from the bus, or car, and converts it back to AC to provide power for the grid.
