GM is developing large-scale energy storage batteries and partnering with Peak Energy on sodium-ion tech for grid stability. Collaborations include PG&E in California, targeting 52,000 EVs in grid-balancing by 2030, and DTE Energy in Michigan for backup capacity testing. Currently, over 250,000 bidirectional-capable GM EVs are on US roads." datetime: "2026-06-10T06:15:46.000Z" locales: - [zh-CN](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/news/289280451.md) - [en](https://longbridge.com/en/news/289280451.md) - [zh-HK](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/news/289280451.md) --- # GM Plans EVs-to-grid Integration With Bidirectional Charger Add as your preferred news source on Google Add Now General Motors (GM) said its bidirectional-capable EVs, when paired with GM's home energy systems, can become a residential power resource capable of sustaining a home for days during localized grid failures. These EVs and energy systems are also engineered to support vehicle-to-grid power flow. The company is integrating bidirectional capability as a foundational standard across entire portfolio. General Motors is also developing batteries for large-scale, energy storage systems for utilities and major power users, while leveraging connected electric vehicles to feed power back into the local, residential grids. To fix a power grid stressed by AI data centers, the company is partnering with Peak Energy to develop and deploy built-for-purpose sodium ion chemistry for grid-scale storage systems. In Northern California, in collaboration with Pacific Gas and Electric Company, General Motors projects that by 2030, a localized fleet of 130,000 GM EVs will be operational, with over 52,000 systematically participating in grid-balancing protocols. In Michigan, the company is testing with DTE Energy, using GM employee homes, to grow reliable backup capacity together. Currently, GM alone has more than 250,000 bidirectional capable vehicles on American roads.
