We're building Israel's first vehicle-to-grid operator, bringing a model that already works in the US, China and Europe to Israel. Idle electric cars become grid power that pays their drivers and steadies the network.
V2G is here, available at scale, and ready to revolutionise our entire energy system.Greg Jackson, Founder & CEO, Octopus Energy · the UK's largest energy supplier
Solar floods the grid by day. Air conditioning drains it by night. The value is in moving power across the hours, and grid operators now pay for it.
The cheapest store of that power is already here: the battery in every parked EV. Let it flow both ways and the national fleet becomes the country's largest power asset.
Israel's EVs already hold roughly 10 GWh of battery. Almost none of it is doing anything.
V2G Hub tracks 151 projects across 27 countries. The leaders have moved past pilots into paid, commercial service.
Octopus Energy's V2G product with BYD cuts driver bills by about £620 a year and delivers free home charging.
Drivers already earn: Tesla Powershare credits in Texas, grid buyback payments in Beijing and Shanghai, and commercial services in France and the Netherlands.
Fast EV growth, a wide day-to-night price gap, a grid that buckles each summer, and no V2G operator yet.
I built V2G Israel's economic model during my research at the University of Oxford, grounded in real tariffs, driving data and battery physics. The conclusion was simple: V2G pays in Israel, and no one is doing it yet. I've founded organizations before, and served as the VP of Life & Environment, Israel's umbrella body for environmental NGOs.
