The report highlights the importance of bidirectional EV charging and distributed energy flexibility in cutting household costs, strengthening supply security, and reducing grid expansion needs. The New Energy Alliance urges policymakers to establish clear frameworks that treat decentralized energy on equal terms with large-scale renewable projects. When paired with solar generation and heat pumps, these technologies could cut consumer energy costs and reduce reliance on imported energy. “E-mobility is more than just clean transportation – it is a key building block of tomorrow’s energy system,” said Giovanni Palazzo, CEO of Elli. Intelligent flexibility from decentralized systems could reduce grid expansion needs at the low-voltage level by 40–50%.
