It's one more way EV owners can commit to a sustainable energy future and get paid for it at the same time."ĮV2g's technology would allow EV owners to sell battery storage back to the electric grid while the EV is plugged in-at no risk or inconvenience to daily driving needs. "Working in partnership with the University of Delaware, eV2g technology will for the first time offer a true two-way interface between EVs and the electric grid, resulting in cost savings to EV fleet operators and eventually other EV owners and consumers, and cleaner and more reliable electricity for everybody.

"As more electric vehicles hit the road and charging stations-such as those provided by NRG'sĮVgoSM network in Texas-continue to proliferate, EV-to-grid technology is the next logical step in the electrification of our transportation network," said Denise Wilson, President of NRG's Alternative Energy Services. Pioneered by UD professor Willett Kempton, this patented leading-edge vehicle-to-grid technology has garnered worldwide attention and holds promise to transform the future of the electricity supply. Partnering with the University of Delaware to take electric vehicles (EVs) to the next level with eV2gSM, a company commercializing new technology that will enable EV owners to sell electric storage services from the batteries of parked EVs to help stabilize the electricity grid. ⎯Harnessing electric vehicles as energy storage offsets electricity costs, promotes grid stability⎯ NRG Energy, University of Delaware Announce eV2gSM Initiative to Develop Electric Vehicle-to-Grid Technology
