A very interesting article that Nissan is introducing an initiative called "Leaf-to-Home," which will use electricity stored in its Leaf electric vehicle batteries to be distributed to residential homes and appliances. It is intended to be a two-way charging system, meaning that the Leaf can be charged as usual, but the Leaf can eventually return the favor by supplying electricity from its battery when there's a local power outage. The automaker estimates that the batteries will still have 80% of their original charge capacity after the EV has reached the end of its lifespan.
