Oft heralded - but yet to arrive at any true scale for all parties...bi-directional charging has long been part of Nissan Motor Corporation's vision. Longer than any other OEM to the best of my knowledge! So - here's recent news of real significance I'd say! 'Nissan's incorporation into the ChargeScape alliance is of particular significance given its?sales of over 650,000 LEAF models, one of the first EVs with the capability to export power back to the grid' 'Nissan is?investing heavily?in bidirectional charging (V2X) capabilities for its entire electric fleet, and ChargeScape is currently building virtual power plants composed of bidirectional EVs in?California,?Texas?and other markets' And as I've suggested for the longest time, once EV owners start earning money from electric vehicles - the game changes BIG time!???? Something I spoke about onstage earlier this year with both Luca de Meo & Peter Rawlinson. And they know stuff! Perhaps I should take counsel with some of my friends at Octopus Energy or Fermata Energy...they know stuff too! ?? #energy #bidirectional #electricvehicles #automotive
"This is a huge step forward for the future of EVs! Nissan's leadership in bi-directional charging and its participation in ChargeScape could revolutionize how we think about energy and transportation. Once EV owners start earning from their vehicles, we’re going to see a whole new level of adoption and innovation. I agree, consulting with the minds at Octopus Energy and Fermata Energy could open up even more possibilities for what's ahead in this space. Exciting times ahead!"
This is great news Roger Atkins. Unfortunately however LEAF is the last vehicle outside of Japan with bi-directional Chademo. We need to accelerate now the standardisation of CCS bi-directional and particularly focus on A/C.
nissan's moves in v2x are groundbreaking. monetizing evs could shake up the whole game.
