September 10, 2022 – Nissan has been doing vehicle-to-grid trials with Fermata Energy and has approved the first ever bi-directional charger for mass-market use with a Nissan LEAF.
“Ideal for companies with fleet vehicles, the Fermata Energy Demand Charge Management application, along with the FE-15 charger, continuously monitors a building’s electrical loads, and may draw on the Nissan LEAF’s energy to provide power to the building during more expensive high-demand periods. In states with utility demand response programs, bi-directional-enabled Nissan LEAF vehicles (MY2013 and later) are able to safely send energy stored in the battery to the grid during peak energy demand times, such as in summer months.”
It is great to simply have an option on the table for consumers who really want V2G tech.
