My wife and I were talking about #ElectricVehicles today, as our car was running low on gas and prices spiked to $162.5 in and around Innisfil. So of course my thoughts drifted to the cause of the latest impact on those of us still burning #FossilFuels. It's time for some storey telling.

Electric cars can make power grids more reliable (and earn owners money)—so why aren't we doing that?
Electric vehicles (EVs) can effectively serve as mobile batteries that provide energy to the power grid when not being driven, improving the reliability of the grid, serving as a source of backup power and potentially reducing energy and EV ownership costs. So why have so few places adopted the vehicle-to-grid (V2G) model? A new study details the barriers to V2G adoption and outlines possible paths forward for this technology.
