An electric car is, in practice, a large mobile battery. Increasingly, the point is not only to charge it, but also to use it whenever electricity may be needed somewhere other than for powering the vehicle itself. This is the idea behind bidirectional energy flow: energy can flow not only to<\/i> the car, but also from<\/i> the car. It is worth understanding what Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) is, meaning the powering of external devices using energy from the car. It is also important to know that the same concept has two further variants: Vehicle-to-Home (V2H), meaning powering a home from the vehicle, and Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G), meaning feeding energy back into the electricity grid. They differ mainly in their level of implementation: V2L is usually the simplest and often works like a socket in the car, while V2H and V2G typically require compatible equipment, configuration, and formal procedures.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
