Costs of light-duty plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) are high—largely due to their lithium-ion batteries—and unlikely to drastically decrease in the near future, according to a new report from the National Research Council (NRC). Most of the electricity used to power these cars will be supplied from the nation’s power grid.

Vehicle to Grid is a really interesting area to do projects. The idea here is that you can connect your EV to the power grid and flow power from your EV to the Grid. An electric car acts as a load or micro-generating station for the grid. Advantages of V2G in grid perspective 2. That would be great.
