On the other hand, drivers of other vehicles waste considerable time making special trips to refuel their internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles at the liquid fuel station or their battery electric vehicle (BEV) at the rapid recharging station. PHEVLERs make our electric grid more efficient. [

V2G returns the energy stored in EV batteries to the grid. That means millions of electricity storage units – the batteries – are available to the electric grid to serve peak demand, with the vehicles recharging during non-peak hours. The thinking goes like this: Most vehicles are stationary 95 percent of the time.

It optimizes energy consumption based on grid constraints, energy pricing, renewable energy availability, locally stored energy, preconfigured EV owner preferences, and driver needs. The energy from the EV batteries is available to the electric grid to serve peak needs, with the vehicles recharging during non-peak hours.
