German regulator clears EV batteries to power homes and grid
Original: German regulator clears path for EV batteries to power homes and feed grid
Germany's energy regulator has approved rules allowing electric vehicle batteries to be used not only for driving but also to supply power to homes and feed electricity back into the grid. The move, reported by Reuters, opens the door to bidirectional charging, letting car owners store cheap or self-generated renewable energy and sell surplus power back to the network.
Why now: Vehicle-to-grid technology is a major step for energy storage and EV owners' potential earnings, and a national regulator's approval is a concrete regulatory milestone.
