Als die Stromleitungen ausfielen, zeigten 16 Nissan Leafs, wie Elektrofahrzeuge die benötigte Notstromversorgung in Australien gewährleisten können

“In total, the 16 vehicles provided 107kW of support to the grid. This was the first time in the world such a vehicle-to-grid response to a grid emergency has been demonstrated.

For context, we would need only 105,000 vehicles providing such a response to fully cover the typical spare capacity in the New South Wales (NSW) and Australian Capital Territory (ACT) system used to balance supply and demand when an unexpected event occurs.

We already have more than 200,000 electric vehicles on Australian roads. Of these, 98,436 new electric vehicles were sold last year and more than 40,000 in the past five months.”
