Why Bidirectional Charging is The Next Big Thing for EV Owners

Wallbox

Whilst with unidirectional (one-way) EV chargers, electricity flows from the electric grid into the electric vehicle, with bidirectional (two-way) EV chargers, electricity can flow both ways. This also helps avoid situations in which a large proportion of EV owners charge at the same time, overloading the energy supply grid.
