A project funded by the Office for Low Emission Vehicles (OLEV) and the Department for Business Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) awarded ByteSnap Design a two-year project VIGIL (Vehicle-to-Grid Intelligent Control) under a Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) competition.

Working in partnership with Ashton University, Nortech Management and Grid Edge, ByteSnap will develop a communications adapter to ensure flexibility of design and compatibility with various V2G charge points in a communication and control platform for Vehicle-to-Grid/Building (V2G/V2B) systems.

More than 50 industrial partners and research organizations in the Energy and Automotive sectors will be working together on this project. The trials will involve more than 2700 vehicles across the UK.

The goal is to aid transition to a low-carbon transportation and smart energy system, allowing EVs to return energy to the Power Grid. Another objective is to make better use of renewable sources and increase Grid resilience.

Sodium-ion batteries are reaching commercial scale, cutting China out of the energy storage supply chain

Sodium-ion batteries are reaching commercial scale, cutting China out of the energy storage supply chain

Sodium-ion batteries are becoming a commercially viable technology for energy storage, offering an alternative to lithium-ion solutions. These batteries utilize resources that are abundant and can be sourced domestically, reducing reliance on foreign supply chains. This positions sodium-ion batteries as a strategic asset for energy independence.

  • 01Sodium-ion batteries offer a viable alternative to lithium-ion for energy storage.
  • 02These batteries use materials that are abundant and can be sourced domestically.
  • 03The development of sodium-ion batteries can reduce dependence on foreign supply chains.

The grid investment surge of 2026 is reshaping what utility operators must evaluate now

The grid investment surge of 2026 is reshaping what utility operators must evaluate now

Significant capital investments are being made in grid infrastructure, highlighted by a $1 billion raise for home batteries and a $510 million wind project in Mexico. These investments necessitate utility operators to re-evaluate their strategies and plans to accommodate changes and upgrades. Proper evaluation and adaptation by utility operators are essential to optimize the benefits of this grid investment surge.

  • 01A $1 billion investment in home battery technology is part of the growing grid infrastructure funding.
  • 02A Mexican wind project has secured $510 million, indicating strong investment in renewable energy.
  • 03Utility operators must adapt their strategies to effectively integrate new grid technologies and investments.
