Stations at Nissan R&D hub can charge cars or suck their battery power back to grid

Nissan has installed eight vehicle-to-grid (V2G) chargers at its Nissan Technical Centre Europe (NTCE) research and development center in Cranfield, UK. The technology makes it possible to both charge electric vehicles (EVs) and to draw energy from their batteries back to the grid when required.

The chargers have been installed for the use of employees at the NTCE, which is the first of Nissan’s European facilities to receive the technology. They were developed by Nissan in partnership with energy provider Enel, with whom the carmaker launched a pilot earlier this year in which 100 V2G units are being rolled out across the UK.
