The Issue
Project Innovation
This project will advance and demonstrate bidirectional charging technologies for heavy-duty electric vehicles (EVs) to provide backup power and other electric services to a critical fleet facility located in a disadvantaged community in Oakland. The project will implement modifications to existing bidirectional charging hardware and software to enable blackstart and variable discharge capabilities. The project will also evaluate potential impacts to EV battery degradation associated with bidirectional charging and develop operational strategies to extend battery lifetime.
