Regulator clears EVs to feed power back into the grid
Original: Grid agency allows electric cars to send power back to the grid, but industry says the rules are still too complicated
The grid agency has approved rules allowing electric vehicle owners to send stored power back to the electricity grid, a step that could turn car batteries into a distributed energy resource. Industry groups, however, say the new rules remain too complicated and could slow adoption of vehicle-to-grid technology, arguing that simpler settings are needed for the scheme to work at scale.
Why now: Regulatory approval of vehicle-to-grid charging is a significant shift for the energy and auto industries, but the complexity of the rules is drawing criticism.
