On V2G, V2L etc..... What Would Elon Do. WWDO Tesla developing bi-directional charging feature 'many people' won't use. He has spoken and as always, he makes sense out of nonsense. Here are his words. "
“I mean, if you have a Powerwall that can take the house load, then you can use your car as a supplementary energy source to the Powerwall. And then, you’re not going to drive anyone crazy by unplugging your car and having the house go off.
“So I think there’s some value there as a supplemental energy source down the road. Where if you have a Powerwall, you’ve not diminished the convenience of the people in the house.”
So to translate, he's saying, look, if you buy my stationary car today for the same price (2x Powerwalls after installation) as my upcoming Model 2, it will work better for V2H/V2G, because you can't drive it away. Sure, my stationary car has only 1/3 the range/capacity of the Model 2, but it won't be an issue, because it has no wheel, nor seats!
And then you can supplement the stationary car's V2H/V2G with an additional battery, and the bonus is, the additional battery has wheels and seats, and you can drive it around!
