GermanyThe article discusses Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technology, which allows electric vehicles (EVs) to feed energy back into the power grid. This process enables EV batteries to serve dual purposes—transportation and energy storage. According to an analysis by E.ON, over 225,000 EVs in Germany met the hardware requirements for bidirectional charging as early as mid-2025, including several models from Volkswagen and Hyundai. Implementing V2G requires specific vehicle models, bidirectional wallboxes, smart electricity meters, home energy management systems, and contracts with V2G service providers. These providers manage the energy flow, control charging processes, and compensate users through reduced charging fees, annual payments, or credit on their electricity bills. Examples of existing or planned V2G offerings include partnerships between E.ON and BMW, Octopus Energy and Ford, Volkswagen and its energy brand Elli, and The Mobility House Energy with Mercedes, Renault, and Toyota.
