Vehicles
are just batteries on wheels
Vehicles as onsite electricity storage
The integration of vehicles into electrification is already transforming the economics of decarbonization. Apart from buildings, transportation is the largest single greatest cause of climate change. For over a decade, Local Power has tracked the development of vehicle-to-building (V2B) charging systems. As reverse charging technologies increasingly enter automobile markets, from buses and fleet vehicles to electric pickup trucks, electric vehicles will become a whole new way to store onsite power. CCA 3.0 integrates vehicles, alongside heating systems, as critical, low cost and synergistic onsite renewable storage resources.
