DC V2G is already possible via the CHAdeMO protocol however CCS will not support V2G until 2025, and AC V2G is expected to be more widespread in the near future.
Placing the power electronics in the EVSE, where increased size and weight are less of a problem, could allow higher power DC V2G to take place which may be useful in some situations.
Lower cost AC V2G charging infrastructure could lead to more widespread deployment at longer dwell time locations that are more suitable for V2G.
What do you think?
In a future scenario where V2G is a mainstream scenario, which do you think will be more common, AC or DC V2G? Add your thoughts into the comments below.
