Just wondering if anyone knows much about this feature? Otherwise known I belive as vehicle to grid (V2G)? I'm considering installing solar pv panels at home and am interested to use the EV6 battery in the system for charging from solar as well as drawing down from for domestic use. Would like to know more about the following :
(1) what is the maximum power output available?
(2) what interface is there to control or limit the battery output to ensure I would still have at least half a battery full each day to go out and about. And when I planned to go for a long drive how would i disable the battery output and instead fully charge the car?
(3) is there a KIA app to use on mobile phone for this and other features of ev6?
At a glance setting up like this might improve the economics of the vehicle purchase considerably since stand alone domestic batteries aren't particularly cheap. Also, the car would often be parked at home in the garage and since the 77.4kwh battery is rather large (compared to the ten year old Nissan leaf I also have) even half capacity would be more than adequate 90% of the time.
Although its called vehicle to grid, I'm not that interested in selling to the lines company as here in NZ you only get paid about a quarter of what you pay for power. So hopefully it's possible just to output to home use only?
