E272: Top 10 Things V2G Can Do for Us

Energypreneurs

In this episode, our guest is Sohail Hasnie, host of Energypreneurs, who shares his personal reflections on the game-changing potential of Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technology. Driving through Metro Manila, Sohail explores the "10 things V2G can do for us"—a practical and visionary list that shows how electric vehicles can go far beyond transportation to become mobile power stations.

He explains how V2G could:

• Reduce electricity bills
• Provide backup power during emergencies
• Enable income streams through bi-directional charging
• Optimize solar energy use
• Support grid stability during peak demand
• Boost property values
• Encourage energy independence
• Create community-level resilience
• Allow participation in energy markets
• And ultimately, reshape how we generate, store, and use electricity

Drawing from real-world scenarios and analogies to the mobile phone revolution, Sohail makes a compelling case that V2G could transform both the energy and transport sectors in ways we’re only beginning to imagine.
