The UK also hopes to connect more and more EVs to the electricity grid to share power at peak times, in something called vehicle to grid charging (V2G). This will allow the grid to draw renewable energy from cars and vans which are plugged in, with their batteries replenished when energy is cleaner at off-peak times.

These vehicles will be studied to help evolve all-electric vehicle technology and to establish a foundation of understanding on utility grid needs by modeling impact of future all-electric vehicle growth on the shared energy grid.

For instance, while an average gas-powered car can reach up to 482 km ( 300 miles ) on a full tank, most electric models have a range of 200-490 km (124-304 miles) on a single charge. Is our grid ready for a full transition to EVs? All things considered, it remains clear that EVs are the greener, cleaner transport choice.

A lot of people don’t understand how that can be, but if you think about the topology of a charger, there’s the power electronics that are connected to the grid—that’s where the cabinet is—then there’s a cable going from there to where the vehicle is, and then there’s vehicle coupling.
