Cars That Think

MARCH 11, 2023

The concept behind V2G had gained traction in the late 1990s after California’s landmark zero-emission-vehicle (ZEV) mandate went into effect and compelled automakers to commercialize electric cars. The need for large-scale electrochemical energy storage as a grid-stabilizing source of demand disappeared. After earning a Ph.D.

Studies estimate utilities might compensate car owners with $2,000-3,000 a year to "borrow" their storage capacity -- thereby helping to offset the incremental costs of plug-in hybrids. DaimlerChrysler is using them in some of its prototype PHEV Sprinter commercial vans. What do environmental groups think of PHEVs?
