EVs may be the way to drive down everyone’s power bills
Incentives for electric car owners to sell the energy stored in their vehicles back to the network can make a national decline of $ 230 million and make the power cheaper for everyone.
Modeling by the Electric Vehicle Council proposes a $ 3000 government reduction from vehicle to network or V2G, Chargers will pose 4500 dollars down on electricity bills across Australia.
Technology, called two -way technology, allows the energy stored in Houses in the daylight, and it is cheap to sell power during the evening peaks.
According to the study, every dollar spent to support V2G means a reduction in the need for additional spending for lower wholesale sales prices and infrastructure.
The benefits of the participants will also be useful, and when the demand is high, power is an extra $ 1000 per year to export power.
The Council says that V2G charger, which is included in the $ 2.3 billion home battery program of the Federal government, and the houses that contribute 600,000 will match the output of the Electrical Power Plant operating at full capacity.
According to CEO Julie Delvecchio, there is a great potential to help the electric network cheaper and balance the energy network.
“We have the opportunity to lead the accusation of receiving the vehicle-fizzy, as there is a rapid global leader in the Australian roof sun.” He said.
“Houses can store five times more energy than a typical home battery.”
Australia is already home to more than 350,000 houses or “giant batteries on wheels” with a highly guaranteed guaranteed guaranteed.
“Some houses are currently around $ 30,000, pre -cost, more suitable for more Australian to switch to cheaper cars.” He said.
“V2G opens all the advantage of home purchase in a way to help everyone – whether or not the landlord or not.”
The Council wants the home battery program to include a discount of $ 3000 for a 50,000 V2G charger at a cost of $ 150 million by the end of 2028.
He calculates that this will create a national benefit of more than $ 230 million by 2033.
Earlier this year, a study by the Technology University Sydney and IMove Cooperative Research Center found that more than half of all Australians wanted to double their cars as a battery that could feed back to the grill.
However, major changes will be required to facilitate the process.
The high price of two -way charger, permanent software problems and complex installation processes are the main problems.
In February, the Australian renewable energy agency has released a V2G road map that predicts that 2.6 million households can use technology to support and save the energy network by 2040.
