V2H
Vehicle-to-Home technology requiring coordination between the vehicle and the residential power distribution system to supply power to the home's main circuits during outages, necessitating grid synchronization and anti-islanding protection.
Timeline (last 90 days)
In the short term, the more realistic path is V2H home backup power and demand response, rather than full-power feeding into the grid.
V2x technology is the collective term for how electric vehicles interact with the outside world, including V2H (vehicle-to-home) and V2G (vehicle-to-grid), among others.
V2H refers to an electric vehicle using bidirectional charging equipment to invert the DC power in its traction battery into household AC power to supply a residence.
The available power of V2H is commonly on the order of 3–10 kW.
At present, V2G is still in the pilot stage in many parts of the world, while V2H has already entered the configuration lists of mass-produced vehicle models.
V2L only requires one-way inverter output, whereas V2H requires the inverter to support grid synchronization, anti-islanding protection, and coordination with the home distribution panel.
Even if the vehicle has a built-in V2H inverter, supplying power to a home during an outage usually still requires installing a transfer switch or smart distribution panel on the home distribution panel side to avoid the islanding effect.
Tesla's current vehicle models (such as Model 3 and Model Y) do not natively support V2H vehicle-to-home discharging.
The Nissan Leaf already has real-world V2H discharging application cases via the CHAdeMO interface.
The Ford F-150 Lightning supports V2H discharging with a maximum output of 9.6 kW.
