Regulator clears EVs to feed power back into grid

Original: Grid agency allows electric cars to send power back to the grid, but industry says the rules are still too complicated

A grid agency has approved rules allowing electric vehicle owners to send stored power from their cars back to the electricity grid, a step that could turn parked EVs into a major energy resource. Industry groups welcomed the decision but criticised the framework as overly complicated, warning that cumbersome compliance requirements could slow adoption of vehicle-to-grid technology by drivers and energy retailers.

Why now: Regulators have just opened the door to vehicle-to-grid charging, and industry frustration with the new rules is prompting debate.
