Ok, back to EV powering a house.
Is there a special connection for the EV to power the home or it's just like the straight up connection between the RV and the trailer puller? Crazier question, how would you prevent it from powering the entire neighbourhood? Pulling down the main switch?
Yeah, I have not heard of such feature like that here in the US..
Hi Yosemite Sam1,
It would operate in the same manner as a hybrid grid tied system (i.e. a solar farm with battery storage).
The meter would need to be upgraded. The owner would be reimbursed for power that was drawn from their BEV to help stabilize the grid.
In the case of a power outage, where one wishes to still have power, a relay would disconnect the home from the grid.
