GM set up its system and brought out two new Silverados to demonstrate both their vehicle-to-load (V2L) and V2H capabilities. But the battery wasn’t connected for the purposes of this demonstration. That’s important, because the system isn’t cheap. GM does seem more committed on this front than anyone else at this time.
