- Study: 7kW solar + 9kWh battery + V2H-capable EV reduces annual electricity cost by 6.8%
- Lowest estimated annual cost: $2,451
- Without V2H, households need larger battery, costs increase 10.8%
- South Australia only state with legalized V2G technology
- Trials by AGL and Origin Energy in select areas
Mid-term sales uplift for V2H-capable EVs in Australia is expected, but growth may be gradual due to higher upfront costs.
