Een overzicht van het belangrijkste mobiliteitsnieuws! Wat zijn de gevolgen van de kabinetsval voor mobiliteit? Een Kamermeerderheid vindt de prijsstijging van NS-tickets met 12% onaanvaardbaar, reizigersorganisatie Rover noemt de OV-staking vrijdag 'buitenproportioneel' en in Utrecht start een grootschalige proef met V2G-technologie. De val van het kabinet zorgt voor 'stilstand en meer onzekerheid', waarschuwen organisaties in de mobiliteitssector. Noud Broekhof, presentator van BNR Mobility, merkt op dat er eigenlijk al vrij weinig gebeurde. 'Grote wegprojecten zijn gepauzeerd en verder was er vooral veel gedoe. Over de aanpak van fatbikes, over de invoering van zero-emissiezones -die toch niet uitgesteld werden- en de terugkeer van 130 overdag, ook zo'n flater.' Verder in deze update: Een Kamermeerderheid vindt een prijsstijging van treinkaartjes met 12% onaanvaardbaar. Reizigersorganisatie Rover vindt de OV-staking buitenproportioneel.

C'est une petite révolution énergétique qui s'opère sur nos routes. Alors que les véhicules électriques représentent désormais un quart des ventes automobiles en France, le gouvernement vient de donner un nouveau coup d'accélérateur à l'infrastructure de recharge. Ce vendredi 16 mai 2025, en déplacement à L'Haÿ-les-Roses, les ministres Eric Lombard (Économie) et Marc Ferracci (Industrie et Énergie) ont dévoilé une stratégie ambitieuse : 7 millions de bornes d'ici 2030, dont 400 000 accessibles au public.Aujourd'hui, la France compte déjà 2,5 millions de points de recharge, dont 168 000 en libre accès. Mieux encore, la disponibilité technique des bornes atteint 93%, un gage de fiabilité qui place l'Hexagone dans le peloton de tête européen. Et désormais, il y a plus de bornes électriques que de stations-service classiques, y compris dans les zones rurales souvent oubliées. Transparence et praticité sont les maîtres mots de cette nouvelle étape : une mise à jour des données en open data permettra bientôt de connaître en temps réel les tarifs, la disponibilité et l'emplacement des bornes. Un simulateur du coût de recharge est également prévu. À domicile, les installations restent coûteuses – entre 1 500 et 2 500 euros – mais l'État continue d'offrir un crédit d'impôt couvrant jusqu'à 75% de la facture, plafonné à 500 euros, ainsi qu'une TVA réduite. En copropriété, les délais d'installation devraient être divisés, avec un plan d'action exigé d'Enedis pour une pose en moins de six mois.Pour ceux sans solution à la maison, l'alternative se développe : bornes sur le lieu de travail, dans les parkings de supermarchés ou les zones publiques, avec 45 000 nouveaux points financés par la Banque des territoires. Et l'avenir ? Il s'appelle V2G, pour “Vehicle-to-Grid” : des voitures capables de restituer de l'électricité au réseau pendant les pics de consommation. En 2035, les batteries des véhicules pourraient représenter 1 200 GWh de stockage, transformant nos voitures en mini-centrales. Le tout, accompagné de tarifs préférentiels pendant les heures solaires ou les heures creuses pour inciter à une recharge intelligente. Même les flottes d'entreprise devront s'adapter : 18% d'électrification dès 2026, avec à la clé jusqu'à 50% d'économies à l'usage. Hébergé par Acast.

On this episode of Alternative Power Plays, Alan Seltzer and John Povilaitis are joined by Willett Kempton, Professor at the University of Delaware. Willett is a leading expert in vehicle-to-grid (or V2G) technology, which enables vehicles to absorb excess energy from the grid when demand for power is low and returns some electricity back to the electric grid when the demand for power is high. Willett discussed the potential of V2G technology to transform renewable energy storage. He then talks about the importance of net metering and what government support and/or subsidies may be needed to boost adoption. The podcast continues as Willett discusses electricity usage and how it relates to solar energy.

Here's the dream: Millions of EVs plugged into their charging docks, working in concert to relieve stress on the world's power grids. They reduce charging load or even inject energy back onto the grid. They back up renewables when the wind doesn't blow or the sun doesn't shine. That's the vision for managed charging, or V1G, and vehicle-to-grid, or V2G. There's also a third technology called vehicle-to-home that allows an EV battery to power a building, just like a home battery. Collectively these technologies are called V2X. There's reason to think this V2X dream could become a reality. They're already happening at small scales. And when they reach larger scales, the cumulative impact could be big. A recent Nature study found that by 2030 the total battery capacity across the world's mobile batteries could be more than two terawatt hours, climbing to more than 30 terawatt hours by 2050. But first, these technologies need to overcome some big barriers—costly grid upgrades, degrading batteries, drivers worried about being left without a charge—just to name a few. So what will V2X actually look like? In this episode, Shayle talks to Ty Jagerson, leader of V2X at GM. They cover topics like: The contracts GM is signing with customers to manage their charging Reassuring EV owners that managed charging is not going to leave them without a charge What kind of compensation EV owners could get for V2G and whether the value to companies will be worth the costs The carrots and sticks of V2G: compensation and time-of-use charges Whether V2G will be more valuable for capacity or energy markets Whether V2G will degrade batteries and violate manufacturer warranties Recommended Resources: Canary Media: Is ‘vehicle-to-everything' charging ready for prime time?
