Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) and Grid-to-Vehicle (G2V) are two-way communication technologies that involve the flow of electricity between electric vehicles (EVs) and the power grid. These technologies are part of the broader concept known as smart charging or bidirectional charging. Grid-to-Vehicle (G2V) Technology: 1.
