Electric vehicles (EVs) are looking to be a huge part of our future. As the costs of climate change and the price of oil both become too high to bear, auto manufacturers will shift more of their vehicle fleets to electric. EV fleets could play a part in overloading the grid, or could wind up unable to charge.

This Vehicle to Grid (V2G) system consists of the Endesa two-way charger and an energy management system that can also integrate such off-grid, and renewable, power generation as solar panels and wind turbines. We believe this innovation represents a significant development for Nissan Leaf and e-NV200 customers.
