Why V2X is Interesting Bi-directional charging enables electric vehicles – from passenger cars and trucks to buses and tractors – to power equipment, buildings and the power grid. Given that the majority of battery storage lives in EVs, and will continue to do so, integrating EVs and the grid will be crucial.
Notable Companies with V2X Hardware/Software Solutions
Past Headwinds: V2X activity has been limited because most EV manufacturers were concerned that bi-directional charging would impact EV battery longevity and did not enable V2X capabilities. Moreover, bi-directional are expensive and have lacked standardization. Recent Tailwinds: Thanks to improved BMS solutions, automakers like Nissan, Ford and Lucid are already selling V2X-capable vehicles. GM, Hyundai-Kia, Volvo, VW and others, meanwhile, have announced plans to do so. Notably, Ford’s F-150 Lightning has the same battery capacity as 7 Tesla Powerwalls (enough to, in theory, power a U.S. home for up to three days).
