Then, when you want to use that energy stored in the EV’s battery for a house or send it back to the grid, the DC electricity used in the car logically has to be converted back to AC electricity. For instance, many energy companies may offer preferential rates for night-charging. What Is Bidirectional or “Two-way” Charging Used For?

Energy-saving tips One action is to use less electricity, Rahman said, noting that dimming lights by 20 percent in homes, office buildings, hotels, and schools could save 10 percent of electricity. Another is switching to LEDs, which use at least 75 percent less energy than incandescent bulbs. Many countries already do so.
