Do S&P chargers offer bi-directional charging?

Information about support for vehicle-to-grid / vehicle-to-home.

Our chargers do not offer bi-directional charging.

This idea is still in its early conception stage, and not supported by many vehicles. Bi-directional charging is not possible with standard EV chargers, and requires specific, bulky and expensive charging equipment.

Similar to all standard “Mode 3” EV chargers, our chargers rely on the vehicle’s on-board charger to convert AC power from the mains to DC power to charge the batteries. In nearly all EVs currently available, the onboard charger only works in one direction – so you can’t take energy out of the batteries and feed this back into the grid.
