EVs are Better for the Environment Over the course of their lifetimes , EVs generate less than half of the GHG emissions of comparable gasoline-powered vehicles. This includes all of the resources used in manufacturing the vehicle, the battery, and powering the vehicle. In addition, electricity in the U.S.

This turns EV batteries into a source for power storage that can be leveraged to balance energy capacity in your condo. What’s more, if your condo has onsite renewable sources like solar panels, these chargers could also help you store this excess energy during the daytime to support energy demand at night.

And in a true smart grid, electric cars will not only be able to draw on electricity to run their motors, they will also be able to do the reverse: send electricity stored in their batteries back into the grid when it is needed. In effect, cars would be acting like tiny power stations. While utilities such as E.ON Follow the money.

Also, besides giving you the ability to charge at night when most utility rates are lower, future vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology may allow you to sell some of your stored energy back to the utilities. Currently, there are some industrial facilities that use battery swapping to replenish the energy stores of electric forklifts.
