Why we care

Joris

When I was digging into energy economics and power grids at MIT and Stanford, I realized that EVs aren't just transportation—they're mobile battery fleets that can revolutionize grid stability. With family ties to solar farms and developing grid infrastructure across multiple countries, I've seen firsthand how renewable energy and smart storage can work together. V2G technology represents the missing link that helps widespread renewable adoption to be both technically feasible and economically attractive in an even shorter time.
