“Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technology has arrived on the car wheel scene!
On April 24, 2025, at 05:08:38, it was reported that V2G technology has been introduced and is being integrated into electric vehicle charging stations. This new technology allows for bi-directional energy flow between electric vehicles and the power grid.
Recently, a new charging station with 64 charging points has been installed at the “Haidong Road” intersection in the Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region. The station is capable of accommodating both electric vehicles and a V2G system that supports energy flow control.
In another development, the Huangshan Electric Power Company has been working on the deployment of V2G technology at its charging stations in various cities, including Ningxia. The project aims to establish a network of charging stations that integrate V2G capabilities, enhancing the interaction between electric vehicles and the power grid.
As of now, the V2G technology is being tested in multiple cities across China, with a focus on improving energy management and facilitating the charging and discharging of electric vehicles. A total of 30 pilot projects have been initiated to assess the feasibility and efficiency of V2G systems.
Furthermore, these pilot projects will allow for the collection of data on energy consumption and charging patterns, which will be critical for future enhancements in electric vehicle technology.
In terms of electric vehicle adoption, the number of electric vehicles in China is projected to reach 31.4 million by the end of 2024, with charging infrastructure expected to support 12.81 million charging points.
By 2025, it is anticipated that over 1 million electric vehicles will be participating in the V2G program. The integration of V2G technology is expected to provide significant benefits, including reduced operational costs for electric vehicle owners and increased efficiency in energy distribution.
For electric vehicle owners, the V2G system presents an opportunity to earn revenue through participation in energy management programs. This system allows them to sell back excess energy to the grid, thus providing a financial incentive to engage with the technology.
In summary, the introduction of V2G technology represents a significant step towards smarter and more efficient energy usage, paving the way for the future of electric vehicles and energy management in China.
