It is estimated that by 2050 the global population will have risen to 9.7 billion, up from 7.7 billion in 2019. The global economy is expected to more than double over the same period. Urbanization, automation, and the rise of living standards will significantly increase the demand for energy globally. At the same time, we urgently need to reduce our CO2 emissions to counter climate change.
Against the social backdrop of ever-rising prices on the gas and electricity markets, the concept of the vehicle-to-grid deserves special attention. An energy transition is imminent, in which electric vehicles will play an increasingly important role, or at least: their batteries will.
There is no escape route: if we want to conduct an efficient climate policy, the future belongs to emission-free vehicles. Electric vehicles that charge quickly, moreover, for users who are often on the road for long periods of time.
