v2h australia

Vehicle-to-Home (V2H) technology in Australia is the clever idea of turning your electric car into a giant, mobile power bank. It allows you to use your EV's battery to power your home during blackouts or peak electricity pricing periods, making your house a bit more self-sufficient and your power bills less painful.

Typical V2H systems support power outputs around 3 to 9 kW, enough to run most household essentials. Australian brands and utilities are increasingly warming to this tech, with compatible EVs like the Nissan Leaf and Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV leading the charge. Prices vary, but expect installation and hardware to cost anywhere from $3,000 to $10,000 AUD depending on complexity.
