EV Connect is collaborating with the Indiana-based Battery Innovation Center (BIC) and Energy Systems Network (ESN) to deploy Indiana’s large-scale Vehicle-to-Grid capable charging system to support school bus fleet, HD truck, and other customer segment applications.
This project will illuminate the challenges and opportunities of V2G technology and showcase impacts on operating characteristics and opportunities for the grid and business models around electric vehicle battery control. The data collected in the program will guide midwest utilities and the BIC in developing forward-thinking programs and policies for grid-interactive electric vehicle battery programs, from monetization to the integration of EV batteries as part of the Distributed Energy Resources (DER) mix.
