Discussion keeps the world turning.
This is Roundtable.
What if your car could not only save you money on gas,
but could actually make you a little money while it's parked in your garage?
That sounds okay.
Tech is turning electric vehicles into something much more exciting than just transportation.
It's turning them into power plants of sorts.
But is this a genuine energy revolution for everyday people?
Or perhaps just a high tech fantasy?
Today, we'll plug into the world of V2G to find out.
We're live from our studios in Beijing.
This is Roundtable.
I'm Steve.
Thank you so much for sharing your time with us today and for the show.
I'm with Yushan and Yushan first on the program.
Stop thinking of your electric vehicle as just a car.
Start thinking of it as a portable bank account.
This is the promise of V2G or vehicle to Grid technology.
The concept is a modern twist on buy low, sell high.
You charge your battery with cheap off peak power and then sell that energy back to the grid when demand and prices soar.
