GM says new battery tech and Vehicle-to-Grid power will help make bidirectional charging a default feature across lineup.

GM is pushing vehicle-to-grid technology as part of its broader energy storage strategy.

General Motors is considering using an unproven, but possibly more powerful, battery technology for its electric vehicles. The stock is up.

GM announced this week a partnership with Peak 'Energy that will bring sodium-ion battery technology to more energy storage facilities.

General Motors is validating the idea of sodium-ion as a ‘defining chemistry’ for grid storage.

With sodium-ion batteries and vehicle-to-grid technology, General Motors' growth ambitions extend far beyond cars.

GM says new battery tech and Vehicle-to-Grid power will help make bidirectional charging a default feature across lineup.

GM follows other car makers into grid scale storage, but it has chosen to focus on sodium-ion technology, which it argues is lower cost and safer.
