Managed EV charging and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology are being deployed in US utilities to reduce peak demand, using electric school buses as a significant resource to store and discharge energy, with potential for large-scale virtual power plants and cost savings demonstrated in California studies.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Electric Vehicles.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You must explore partnerships with school districts or fleet operators using electric buses to access a flexible energy storage resource that utilities are starting to rely on to reduce peak grid demand. This opens a new revenue stream beyond just vehicle sales.
