Forget V2G With New Cars – Is The Nissan LEAF #1 In V2G?

From Transport Evolved.

Last week, Fermata Energy received permission from Nissan to allow its FE-20 V2X Hardware to operate with the Nissan LEAF, allowing transfer of up to 20 kilowatts of power back to the grid (or a building) from a LEAF’s battery pack.

It’s the latest in a growing marketplace of V2X capable hardware for Nissan LEAFs – and given that other V2X options that require a new car are pretty darned expensive, isn’t the Nissan LEAF the cheapest V2X option for those wanting backup power for their home?


00:00 – Introduction
01:02 – V2H is Expensive
01:44 – No pricing Yet But…
02:15 – Nissan LEAFs are perfect for V2G
03:19 – Many companies are now offering V2G for Nissan LEAFs
03:54 – Used Leafs as static battery packs and second cars?
06:05 – Low cost, no loan?
06:50 – V2G through CHAdeMO is more powerful than CCS systems today?
08:32 – Thanks, and Goodbye!
