EV Batteries Could Stop Power Outages In California and the Rest of the U.S.

Wired’s article explains much about vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology and how California hopes to leverage bidirectional charging to boost its grid. The idea behind V2G isn’t really new: just as electricity can be siphoned from the grid and stored in an EV battery, electricity can also be fed back in to help stabilize it.

What a deal. Not only will you be suffering through power outages, now they will be able to drain you car battery so that you are stuck at home. :)


Also, gotta love out they classify EV's as "zero emission" vehicles. I guess you could say that if you ignore the emissions required to build and power them. Batteries STORE electricity, they don't produce it. Whoever is producing it is most likely generating some sort of emissions.

Electric vehicle (EV) sales set to hit an all-time high in 2022, IEA says (cnbc.com)

Overall, the rest of the picture is a more challenging one. The IEA noted that 23 areas were “not on track” with a further 30 deemed as needing more effort.

“Areas not on track include improving the energy efficiency of building designs, developing clean and efficient district heating, phasing out coal-fired power generation, eliminating methane flaring, shifting aviation and shipping to cleaner fuels, and making cement, chemical and steel production cleaner,” the IEA said.
The shadow of 2015′s Paris Agreement looms large over the IEA’s report. Described by the United Nations as a “legally binding international treaty on climate change,” the accord aims to “limit global warming to well below 2, preferably to 1.5 degrees Celsius, compared to pre-industrial levels.”
Cutting human-made carbon dioxide emissions to net-zero by 2050 is seen as crucial when it comes to meeting the 1.5 degrees Celsius target.
