GM Energy bets on bidirectional charging and sodium-ion storage to stabilize the grid

GM Energy announces vehicle-to-grid (V2G) support for its EVs and unveils sodium-ion batteries for grid storage, partnering with PG&E and DTE Energy to deploy V2G-capable vehicles by 2030 and collaborating with Peak Energy and Redwood Materials to expand grid-ready storage, aiming to reduce grid stress and costs, though cross-ecosystem interoperability remains a hurdle.

"Powerwall 3: Tesla's Gateway to V2G Technology?"

The launch of Tesla's Powerwall 3 suggests that the company may be preparing to introduce bi-directional charging (V2G) to its electric vehicles. While Tesla has previously referred customers to its Powerwall for vehicle-to-home charging, the upgraded power capacity of the Powerwall 3, which matches the on-board chargers in Tesla vehicles, raises the question of whether they are bi-directional charging capable. While the value of V2H may be limited without a stationary battery, adding bi-directional charging to vehicles could be a valuable feature for those who want to use it, even if it is only used occasionally.
