Under a venture with the motto “From Road to Grid”, Audi is therefore currently working on a concept to convert old batteries into stationary energy stores. The plate has an integrated primary coil and an inverter (AC/AC converter). An AC/DC converter inverts the current, which is then fed into the high-voltage electrical system.
