The new ISO15118-20 already includes bidirectional charging, and manufacturers are starting to work to incorporate into their vehicles and chargers not only fast DC charging but allowing
At the moment, you don't need bidirectional charging. Despite the exciting potential of bidirectional charging, there's a simpler and more immediate solution available: a smart wallbox with dynamic load balancing and flexible tariff charging like our go-e Charger.
When electricity demand is high, EVs can supply electricity to the grid, acting as a distributed energy source. Conversely, during off-peak hours, they can recharge. The goal of bidirectional charging, in this case, is to contribute to grid stability and reduce the need for additional power plants.
Imagine making your morning cup of delicious cappuccino just by connecting a coffee machine directly to your vehicle when camping. To use Vehicle to Load bidirectional charging, you need a normal Schuko socket in the electric car to which you can connect electrical devices on the go.
Bidirectional EV charging allows power to flow both ways: from the grid to your electric vehicle and back from the vehicle to the grid or another device. Unlike traditional charging, which moves power in only one direction (from the grid to the car), this method provides new possibilities for energy management and efficiency.
