As someone that charges lithium batteries for both cars as well as for my house, I can promise you there is 0% of me that wants to cycle my vehicle battery from 100 to 0 every day to arbitrage $1.80 of electricity.
- Retric 4y agoI am suggesting we build ~twice as many batteries as EV’s alone would need. With half being used for the grid not to directly use EV’s for grid storage. Presumably if it gets anywhere close to similar scale grid batteries would end up with dramatically different form factors and chemistry as they don’t need to worry about collisions, charging time, etc.
- alfor 4y agoBut if you could cycle your battery from 50%-80% it’s possible you don’t get any meaningful wear on the battery. You could also just charge in period of low usage of the grid (if there were special tariffs for that)
