The bill, SB-233 , aims to advance grid resilience and protect the climate by using EVs as “batteries on wheels,” tapping their stored energy to balance electricity supply and demand rather than bringing high-polluting peak generators online. Vehicle-to-building works much the same way but on a larger scale.

EVs Improve Public Health Transportation emissions are the leading source of air pollution in the U.S. A recent study looked at ZIP codes and found that as more EVs were registered in those zip codes, local air pollution levels and emergency room visits dropped. grid actually diversifies U.S. petroleum consumption.

Stacked bars show the change in generation cost combined with the median damages by pollutant assuming the 2010 social cost of carbon given by the Office of Management and Budget ($31 in $2010). However, this shift results in increased externality costs of health and environmental damages from increased air pollution.

To help California mitigate its ever-growing wildfires, this year CalSEED has included companies that are innovating in technologies that will build wildfire resiliency into the grid. This novel technology would deliver safe, reliable, resilient, and cost-effective electric power in the grid.

What's most interesting, however, is how easy (and cheap) it is to do a carbon emission-free 200 mile day in a 100 mile range electric vehicle, my 5 year old Toyota RAV4 EV. Plugging into the California electric grid today would lower the carbon emission of cars tremendously. And I was there representing Plug In America.

Using solar energy (or other renewable energy sources ) to split water delivers sustainability , while recent research has made key inroads toward efficiency and scalability. Hydrogen today comes primarily from natural gas, which pumps out a lot of carbon and methane pollution into the atmosphere.
