demonstrated the potential for vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology to add resilience to national power supplies.</p> <p>After a violent storm destroyed high voltage pylons and cables, causing a blackout 500km away in Melbourne, the V2G system automatically sent signals to all of the Canberra cars connected to charging stations to start discharging power back into the grid.</p> <p><img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/the_you_yangs_power_lines_credit-jason_south.jpeg" />Dedicated <strong><a href="https://www.fleeteurope.com/fr/autonomous-safety/features/fleets-forefront-vehicle-grid-initiatives?a=JMA06&t%5B0%5D=Renault&t%5B1%5D=Nissan&t%5B2%5D=Audi&t%5B3%5D=Electrification&curl=1" target="_blank">bidirectional chargers</a></strong> enable electric cars to draw power from the grid, but also to supply it back to the grid – a solution to overcome peak periods when demand exceeds supply. The average electric vehicle battery stores more than two days’ worth of household electricity.</p> <h3><strong>V2G response</strong></h3> <p>At the time of the Melbourne blackout, four of the EVs were charging and a further 12 were plugged in but idle. They all responded within seconds, rapidly discharging short bursts of electricity into the grid.</p> <p>The cars are part of a fleet of 51 government-owned Nissan LEAFs participating in <strong><a href="https://www.researchsquare.com/article/rs-4445838/v1" target="_blank">a research project</a></strong> led by the Australian National University (ANU), and involving JET Charge, Australia’s largest EV infrastructure company, and Realising Electric Vehicle-to-grid Services (REVS).</p> <p>Dr Bjorn Sturmberg, ANU Senior Research Fellow, said the power cut caused by the storm was the first time in the world that this type of V2G response to an emergency had been demonstrated.</p> <p>“It shows electric vehicles can provide the backup we need in an emergency like this,” he said. “In total, the vehicles provided 107 kilowatts of support to the national grid.”</p> <h3><strong>Widespread application</strong></h3> <p>While this may be a tiny amount of electricity, the trial illustrated how thousands of V2G-enabled vehicles could provide a robust back-up to the national grid. Sturmberg said that if 105,000 EVs had responded in this way, the cars would have fully covered the backup required to power the states of Australian Capital Territory and New South Wales.</p> <p>The Canberra blackout also revealed how the V2G technology needs to develop, because after supplying power to the grid for 10 minutes, nine of the EVs automatically started recharging again.</p> <p>“It may call for an industry adjustment, for instance, to require EV manufacturers to program their vehicles to stop charging during a grid emergency, with an option for drivers to override for urgent charging,” said Sturmberg.</p> <p><img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/jet_charge_acliamneal_1.jpg" />With <strong><a href="https://www.aaa.asn.au/research-data/electric-vehicle/" target="_blank">95,000 electric vehicles sold</a></strong> over the last year in Australia, and more than 200,000 electric vehicles on Australian roads, Tim Washington, JET Charge CEO, said the country was close to reaching the stage where V2G charging could prevent national grid emergencies and major blackouts.</p> <p>“V2G charging can provide power solutions for the grid during irregularities and also generate revenue for customers by participating in what’s known as the contingency frequency control market,” he said.</p> <p>Images from top: ACT Government, Jason South, Liam
