Toyota and SDG&E Collaborate on Vehicle to Grid (V2G) Research for Battery Electric Vehicles

Toyota Motor, North America, U.S.A and San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E) Company have partnered on vehicle-to-grid research for battery electric vehicles with a Toyota bZ4X. The research will be conducted at SDG&E's campus in San Diego, California, using Fermata Energy's bidirectional charger and V2G platform. It will study bidirectional power flow technology to help BEV owners charge their vehicle's batteries from the electric grid and discharge electricity from the batteries back to the grid. SDG&E and Toyota will identify current and future customer benefits to be achieved through new products and services. The pilot will assist SDG&E in understanding the infrastructure required for EV charging, both in public and private settings, and to stabilize the power grid during peak hours.
