Enphase Energy, Inc. announced a successful demonstration of its bidirectional EV charger enabling vehicle-to-home (V2H) and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) functionality. This product will leverage the power of grid-forming IQ8™ Microinverters and Ensemble™ energy management technology to seamlessly integrate into Enphase® home energy systems. In addition, Enphase's bidirectional EV charger is expected to work with most EVs that support standards such as CCS (Combined Charging System) and CHAdeMO (a Japanese charging standard). In addition to charging an EV, Enphase's bidirectional charger will support the following functionality: Vehicle-to-home (V2H) –enables the EV battery to provide uninterrupted power to a home during a power outage.

Vehicle-to-grid (V2G) –allows the EV battery to share energy with the grid to help relieve the strain on electric utilities during times of peak energy demand. Green charging –sends clean solar energy directly to the EV battery. Enphase is working with EV manufacturers to bring this revolutionary technology to market.
