In addition to the installation of V2X charging stations, the V4Grid project will focus on developing comprehensive business models and regulatory recommendations. The goal is to link electric vehicle charging station operators, energy suppliers, producers and consumers. Advanced models will capture and predict consumer behavior patterns, including vehicle arrival and departure times, energy consumption, and production patterns. Special attention will be given to maximizing the use of EV batteries, ensuring that the energy stored in them can be effectively utilized.
The Impact and the Future of Sustainable Energy
The V4Grid Project goes beyond merely enhancing energy storage. By integrating V2X technology, we are enhancing the role of electric vehicles (EVs) in the whole energy system. Rather than being passive consumers of electricity, EVs are evolving into active participants in managing energy flow. They not only store excess renewable energy but also release it back into the grid when needed, helping to balance supply and demand.
With a focus on V2X technology, this project is unlocking new ways to enhance grid flexibility, reduce energy costs, and maximize the use of renewable energy. By enabling smarter energy practices like peak shaving and time-of-use charging, our goal is to discover innovative solutions that are both beneficial and applicable.
This technology will help stabilize the grid and improve efficiency, while also playing a significant role in meeting the environmental goals driving the energy transition. These advancements have the potential to transform how we consume and distribute energy, making the future of energy consumption smarter, more sustainable, and better aligned not only with our needs but also with the needs of our planet.
