One would have to ask just how far $600M would go in supporting BEV uptake?
In particular if it encouraged V2H options, which would
a) provide storage capacity to offset peak demand in the evenings and high demand events.
b) draw on low cost excess generation during the day and off peak evening periods.
c) accelerate the cost return on the investment in the expensive batteries installed in a BEV.
With every 100,000 BEV vehicles providing up to 3.6/7.2kW output and 40-60kWh capacity it is a very significant resource, to draw from. Part of the solution and not the problem?
A further step is realising the potential of V2G to further support generating capacity.
