Standardizing PEV batteries could reduce the purchase and ownership costs of PEVS, as well as addressing additional consumer issues such as maintenance and safety. The stored, compressed air will be used to generate electricity on an “on demand” basis to meet the facility’s needs, including periods of high demand or grid outages.

Don’t mix up alternating current electric car motors with other sorts of electric, which can utilise either alternating or direct current depending on whether you plug into the grid or a specific type of charging station. Conversion from alternate to direct current is thus required, either onboard or outside the vehicle.
