GM Energy Has A Broad Vision Including Vehicles, Stationary Storage, Solar, & VPP
This article was originally posted to Clean Technica in May 2024.I just attended a GM Energy presentation that showcased vehicle-to-home (V2H) and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) capabilities, and plans for energy management services. Despite concerns about battery degradation, the company’s comprehensive approach to energy solutions aims to improve grid resiliency and reduce power outages.
GM Energy, a new business unit of General Motors, focuses on offering batteries, EV chargers, and software to residential and commercial customers. The company has recently introduced the Ultium Home product suite, which includes energy storage, solar panels, and bi-directional charging equipment. These products enable vehicle-to-home (V2H) and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) capabilities, allowing electric vehicles to power homes during blackouts or to provide energy back to the grid. GM Energy aims to expand its energy management services to mitigate the effects of power outages and provide cost-effective energy solutions for customers.
