SINGAPORE: SP Group has started a trial to test and verify the possibility of transferring energy from the batteries of electric vehicles (EV) back to the power grid.
Vehicle-to-grid technology can be a "win-win" for both the electricity system and electric vehicle owners if proven viable, said SP Group on Thursday (Jul 8), adding that it would help to overcome intermittency from solar power while allowing vehicle owners to be paid for the use of their batteries when needed.
