AutoExec Summary
In Australia, electric vehicles are being utilized for vehicle-to-home and vehicle-to-grid charging, allowing them to serve as battery storage. The Australian Standards for inverters, crucial for V2H and V2G charging, are being rewritten to make these processes more accessible and cost-effective. By combining high-voltage EV batteries with solar power, homeowners can charge their vehicles for free and power their homes, even selling excess electricity back to the grid. The updated standards, AS4777.1 and AS4777.2, aim to support the development of inverter energy systems, benefiting both EV manufacturers and the energy market in Australia.
Brands mentioned: BMW, Ford, Renault, Nissan, Mitsubishi.
