Vehicle-to-Home (V2H)

V2H makes it possible to use the electricity from the vehicle battery to supply one’s own household. In this way, energy costs can be optimized and the self-consumption of PV electricity can be increased. The electric vehicle thus becomes a mobile energy storage system.

Vehicle-to-Load (V2L)

V2L offers the possibility of powering external devices directly from the vehicle. Whether for professional use on construction sites, for mobile applications or in leisure time – V2L ensures a reliable and independent energy source at all times.

Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G)

V2G makes it possible to feed the energy stored in the vehicle battery back into the power grid in a targeted manner. As a result, electric vehicles can actively contribute to grid stability, compensate for peak loads, and open up additional sources of marketing and revenue.

Pilot project: E-cars provide emergency power

With a unique and forward-looking pilot project in Raasdorf near Vienna, A1, Renault Austria and the municipality of Raasdorf demonstrated how electromobility can contribute to securing critical infrastructure in the future. For the first time, a mobile radio station has been made capable of emergency power with so-called vehicle-to-load technology (V2L) – and thus remains functional even in the event of a large-scale blackout.

Electric cars are thus becoming mobile energy storage systems. The Renault electric vehicles used – Renault 5 E-Tech Electric and Renault 4 E-Tech Electric – feature V2L technology, in which energy can be taken directly from the vehicle’s battery and made available to external consumers – such as mobile phone stations, which are particularly important in the event of a crisis or blackout.
