Nissan and multinational power company Enel will launch the first major vehicle-to-grid (V2G) trial carried out in the UK. By giving Nissan electric vehicle owners the ability to plug their vehicles into the V2G system, owners will have the flexibility and power to sell stored energy from their vehicle battery back to the National Grid.

Installing and operating EV charging stations offers businesses and owners of commercial and industrial buildings a winning proposition. Renewable energy can also be under-utilized when the wind is blowing and the sun is shining, but demand is lower than supply. EV charging itself creates a new “green” revenue opportunity.

For Nevada, there can be no more significant validation than Tesla’s lithium supply agreements. Where future supplies are concerned, investors will be looking closely at Dajin, which is 100% self-owned and operated. Even more than hybrid cars, grid storage and the “powerwall” will drive lithium demand through the roof.

What we have not done so well is to ensure that we have a solid base level of generation to supply electricity when there is no sun and no wind. This is turn begs the question where does gas come from and what have we done to ensure a safe and reliable supply. On a good or windy day these produce around 20% of the UK electricity needs.
