SMART V2H FOR GRID EMISSIONS REDUCTION AND EMERGENCY POWER DISTRIBUTION

DRIVE January 15, 2026
Source
Systems and methods are provided for a carbon footprint aware V2H system that supplies power from a vehicle to a household based on a carbon footprint of an electrical transmission grid connected to the household. Examples herein electrically connect a vehicle power system to a household power system that is connected to an electrical transmission grid and characterize the carbon footprint of the electrical transmission grid. based on the characterization, electrical power from the vehicle power system can be supplied to the household power system. For example, when the carbon footprint satisfies certain criteria, the vehicle power system can be used to supply power to the household power system.
