Why this matters
AllDayEnergy lets EV owners use their car battery as a mobile energy storage system, charging when rates are low and supplying power to homes or the grid. This can reduce energy costs, support household backup power, and help stabilize the electricity grid, benefiting both EV buyers and utility providers.
