EVs could drive down energy bills for all, new modelling shows

Government rebates that boost the number of EVs feeding energy back into the grid would lower power prices for all Australians, according to new modelling by the Electric Vehicle Council.

The modelling shows that over five years, a $3,000 government rebate towards a V2G charger would create more than $4,500 in downward pressure on electricity bills across Australia. That means for every dollar spent supporting V2G, $1.50 comes back through lower wholesale prices and…
