What is V2H?

Driivz

V2H, or vehicle-to-home, uses smart EV charging and bidirectional (two way) charging to transfer energy stored in the battery of a parked electrical vehicle (EV) to the home for use as a backup power source during outages. The battery in an EV could keep a home or small business running for several days. Is V2H part of V2X?
