During low-demand/low-cost periods you can use grid energy to charge onsite batteries cheaply, or direct energy from solar panels to your batteries when the sun is shining. For example, saving upfront costs by buying low-capacity Level 2 chargers today can severely limit your ability to participate in V2G programs down the road.
