Home Solar EV charging explained
Electric vehicle (EV) sales are growing rapidly, and home owners are looking at ways to charge an EV using solar. In this article, we explain how you can charge an EV using your own rooftop solar and look at the many different EV chargers available including smart chargers which enable solar-only charging and load management features.
Bidirectional EV chargers Review
Bidirectional EV chargers are sophisticated EV chargers capable of two-way charging; charging an EV and discharging energy back into the grid, known as V2G. In this article, we review the Bidirectional EV chargers currently available or under development.
V2G Explained - Benefits of Vehicle-to-grid Technology
Vehicle-to-grid (V2G) is an emerging technology that allows an EV to help stabilise the grid using a specialised bidirectional charger. We explain how vehicle-to-grid technology works and highlight the many benefits V2G will offer in an increasingly decentralised and renewable powered energy system.
Vehicle-to-load Explained - V2L for off-grid or backup power
In this article, we explain how vehicle-to-load or V2L technology works and how it can be connected to an off-grid system to reduce the dependence on backup generators and for storing excess solar energy. Plus how to use V2L as a backup power system at home.
Bidirectional EV charging explained - V2G, V2H & V2L
Bidirectional EV charging is an emerging technology that is set to transform how electric vehicles are used. We explain how bidirectional chargers work and the various technologies available including Vehicle-to-grid (V2G) and Vehicle-to-home (V2H), and Vehicle-to-load (V2L)
