GM Enables Bidirectional EV Charging to Power Homes—and the Grid
GM has activated bidirectional charging for GM Energy customers, enabling thousands of GM EVs to feed power back to homes and potentially the wider grid. While about 250,000 GM EVs are technically capable, actual use hinges on installing a $20,000 GM Energy system and securing utility programs that pay owners for grid support; pilots with utilities like DTE Energy and PG&E seek to prove viability, but broader adoption will require interoperability with many utilities and favorable policy.
