Fifty years after the birth of the rechargeable lithium-ion battery, it’s easy to see its value. Did Exxon invent the rechargeable lithium battery? Stanley Whittingham [from left] shared the 2019 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. The battery’s performance was also unprecedented: It was both rechargeable and very high in energy output.

A fleet of fifteen Zoe vehicles with V2G charging will be introduced in Europe over the course of 2019 to develop future offerings in reversible charging and to lay the groundwork for the future standards. We have chosen onboard technology that also optimizes the cost of recharging stations and thus facilitate a large-scale development.

By contrast, when it is permanently connected to the mains power grid, the battery pack continuously and independently recharges itself. When the energy content of the battery built into the charging station falls below a defined value, the depleted charging station is simply replaced by a charged one.

As countries transition away from fossil fuels to green sources of energy like wind and solar, there will be natural lulls in energy production due to weather conditions. Energy consumption also tends to peak during early evening hours , which is inconveniently right when solar energy output decreases. But the space is still young.
