V2H in Quebec: use your EV as a backup power source
INTRODUCTION:
If you have a modern electric vehicle and the right energy management system, you already have a backup battery in your garage capable of powering your entire home for several days. This is the promise of V2H—and it's one of the reasons Procharge specializes in this technology.
HOW IT WORKS:
Your EV stores energy in its battery. Normally, the charging station sends current from your home to the car. With a V2H system, this flow can reverse. An automatic transfer switch isolates your setup from the Hydro-Québec grid, then allows current from your car to flow. Less than 20 milliseconds—your appliances won't even flicker.
HOW MUCH AUTONOMY IN QUEBEC:
With smart management (priority to heating, fridge, lighting; dryer and oven off):
Tesla Model Y 75 kWh = 2 to 4 days. Ford F-150 Lightning 130 kWh = 3 to 7 days. Hyundai Ioniq 6 77 kWh = 2 to 3 days.
To recharge if necessary, a public fast charger (Circuit électrique, Tesla Supercharger) provides tens of kWh in 30 minutes.
