The BMW Group Technology Office, together with Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E), have launched an 18-month pilot of the BMW i ChargeForward Program in the San Francisco Bay Area. At the end of a vehicle’s life, these batteries still have at least 70% of their original storage capacity available, making them suitable for re-use.

The proportion of grid electricity generated by renewables such as wind and solar energy fluctuates depending on how hard the wind is blowing or how strong the sun is shining. This can lead to a huge variation in the grid power available, which can be a problem for power companies. The EV as a mobile electricity storage device.

At the end of its first life in the vehicle and well before recycling, the battery provides an indispensable solution for the development of renewable and intermittent energies: electricity storage. New operating opportunities such as stationary storage make it possible to perpetuate the service that the battery offers.

Saving money is important, but reliability is mission-critical, and fleet operators were unwilling to get serious about going electric until they had tested EVs in years-long pilot projects. However, the electric road ahead is not exactly clear. Well, that phase of the transition is over. What happens when we plug in 1.2-megawatt
