The EV support structure
One of the signs of maturity we should look for in BEV technology is the existence of a robust market in used cars, writes Peter Donaldson. Evidence of this would include a good choice of makes and models with prices that, while strong, are significantly lower than new prices, and they reflect age, mileage, service history and overall condition.
Deep Insight
V2H & V2G bidirectional charging
Nick Flaherty reports on the latest innovations in bidirectional charging and their ageing effects on battery cells. Bidirectional charging allows energy to flow back and forth between an e-mobility platform such as an EV and other systems, whether that is the electricity grid, other electric equipment or even other vehicles.
