Bidirectional EV chargers are revolutionizing how electric vehicles (EVs) interact with energy systems. Unlike traditional chargers, which only allow energy to flow one way—from the grid to the car—bidirectional chargers enable two-way energy flow. This means EVs can not only charge from the grid but also send electricity back to it or power a home during blackouts. This technology, known as Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) and Vehicle-to-Home (V2H), provides potential cost savings by enabling EV owners to use stored energy during peak hours or emergencies. While only certain EV models, like the Nissan Leaf, currently support this feature, bidirectional charging is a significant step toward a more sustainable and resilient energy future.
