With bidirectional charging, the batteries in our vehicles can not only provide fuel for the road but energy for our homes and even our shared electrical grid. This conversion can happen within the charger or in the vehicle, depending on which device is equipped with a converter. This can further reduce your utility costs.

Once weve consolidated everything to depend on the grid, we can clean up everything by cleaning up the grid. Once electric cars are more common, demand for electricity will rise, and electricity producers will have to look at big generators such as dams, nuclear stations or decentralised wind turbines that feed in to the grid.

Also, besides giving you the ability to charge at night when most utility rates are lower, future vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology may allow you to sell some of your stored energy back to the utilities. Most charge points available today take much longer to re-energize batteries than it does to fill a gas-powered cars tank.
