One study by the University of Rochester found that V2G chargers can save EV owners $120 to $150 per year. Currently, the only ones that work universally with any bidirectional EV are the Wallbox Quasar, the Highbury by Rectifier Technologies, and the Fermata Energy FE-15. This can further reduce your utility costs.

No less an auto industry titan as Ford has also made bidirectional charging a selling point of their F-150 Lightning electric truck, reportedly slated to roll off the lines this year. The pickup boasts 563 horsepower, does zero to 60 in four seconds and wields 1050 Newton-meters (775 lb. And that’s much cheaper than a new $1,300 kit.

Ammonia borane in its normal state releases 12 wt% of hydrogen at temperatures between 110 °C and 150 °C, but with very slow kinetics. Many are also difficult to handle in that they degrade rapidly in air.
