Nissan is investing in the bidirectional EV home charging company ChargeScape, formed by Ford, BMW, and Honda. The tech can sell stored battery energy back to the grid.

Nissan is coming aboard vehicle-to-grid EV integration company ChargeScape as an equal investor, alongside founding automakers BMW, Ford, and Honda. Once the investment transaction is complete, Nissan said it plans to roll out ChargeScape’s services to its electric vehicle customers in the US and Canada.

EV owners who take advantage of ChargeScape’s services can theoretically save money by letting the system pause charging and sell stored EV battery energy back to their local utility companies. Nissan is no stranger to bidirectional charging technologies. As far back as 2012, the automaker included the capability in its pioneering Leaf EV chargers, which were designed to power homes during outages.
