ZHENJIANG, China, Aug. 14,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- On the afternoon of August 9, State Grid Jiangsu Electric Power,
in collaboration with local bus operators, launched a
"vehicle-to-grid" (V2G) interaction test in Zhenjiang, Jiangsu Province, aiming to pool more
resources for the flexible operation of the power grid.
The test involved two new energy buses, which discharged
electricity to the grid continuously for one hour, achieving a
maximum discharge power of 100 kW and a cumulative discharge of 67
kWh, sufficient to power five households for three consecutive
hours.
In 2023, the local government issued the province's first
supporting policy encouraging the development of new energy
vehicles, novel energy storage systems, and the demonstration of
"vehicle-to-grid" interactions, explicitly offering incentives to
new energy vehicles participating in V2G discharge to the grid.
Driven by this policy, local new energy vehicles have shown
increasing enthusiasm for engaging in "vehicle-to-grid"
interactions. "Compared to ordinary new energy vehicles, buses
offer advantages such as larger single-charge discharge capacity,
stable charging times, and scalability, providing a novel
technological approach to green transportation, clean energy
consumption, and power supply security in the region," said Jiang
Renxin, Director of the Marketing Department at State Grid
Zhenjiang Yangzhong Power Supply Company.
After thorough research, State Grid Zhenjiang Power Supply
Company conducted the test at a bus stop. Moving forward, based on
the positive outcomes of this test, State Grid Jiangsu Electric
Power plans to promote V2G technologies across the province,
exploring the research and application of such technologies for
industrial vehicles, taxis, and other types of new energy vehicles,
thereby contributing to the construction of a new-type power
system.
