Global Bidirectional Electric Vehicle Charger Market to 2031: Rise in Demand for Solar-Powered Electric Vehicles Presents Opportunities

DUBLIN, May 11, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Bidirectional Electric Vehicle Charger Market - A Global and Regional Analysis: Focus on Application, Product, and Country-Level Analysis - Analysis and Forecast, 2022-2031" report has been added to  ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global bidirectional electric vehicle charger market was valued at $933.2 million in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $4,820.6 million by 2031, witnessing a CAGR of 20.02% during the forecast period 2022-2031.

The growth in the bidirectional electric vehicle charger market is expected to be driven by the need for renewable sources of power and energy and increasing sales of electric vehicles around the world.

Market Lifecycle Stage

The bidirectional electric vehicle (EV) charger market is in the early growth phase for several reasons. Firstly, bidirectional charging technology is a relatively new concept, and as such, it has not yet penetrated the market fully. This technology enables electric vehicles to not just consume energy from the grid but also feed it back to the grid, providing grid services and enhancing the overall stability and resiliency of the grid.

Secondly, the adoption of electric vehicles is still in its early stages. However, with the increasing demand for greener mobility and the decreasing cost of battery technology, the adoption of electric vehicles is expected to increase in the coming years. As more and more electric vehicles hit the road, the demand for bidirectional charging will increase. Lastly, there is a growing need for grid services such as frequency regulation, which bidirectional charging can provide.

Additionally, this need is expected to grow as the share of renewable energy in the grid mix increases, as solar and wind energy are inherently intermittent and require flexible solutions like bidirectional charging to help balance the grid. As a result, the bidirectional electric vehicle charger market is expected to flourish in the forecast period.

Impact

There are several factors driving the growth of the bidirectional electric vehicle (EV) charger market:

• Increased Demand for Renewable Energy Integration: With the world shifting toward sustainable energy, there has been an increase in demand for integrating renewable energy sources like solar panels and wind turbines into the grid. Bidirectional EV charging technology allows electric vehicle batteries to store excess renewable energy when it is available and feed it back into the grid when there is a shortage.
• Growing EV Penetration: As the adoption of EVs continues to grow, the demand for charging infrastructure is also increasing. Bidirectional EV charging provides an opportunity to improve charging infrastructure by allowing EVs to not only receive electricity from the grid but also send it back during peak demand.
• Reduced Energy Costs: Bidirectional charging technology enables EV owners to sell excess energy stored in their vehicle batteries back to the grid or use it during peak demand hours. This feature can help EV owners reduce their energy costs and even earn profits in some cases.
• Government Incentives: Various governments around the world are providing incentives such as tax credits and subsidies to promote the adoption of bidirectional EV charging technology. This has encouraged manufacturers to invest in research and development of these products.
• Advancements in Technology: Recent advancements in electric vehicle and battery technology have improved the efficiency and reliability of bidirectional charging systems, making them a more practical option for widespread deployment.

Recent Developments in the Bidirectional Electric Vehicle Charger Market

• In October 2021, WALLBOX Inc. partnered with Nuvve Holding Corporation for a pioneering vehicle-to-grid (V2G) cooperation in Iberia aimed at easing grid load and providing users with substantial financial incentives.
• In October 2022, Indra, in collaboration with Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust (MFT) and Hitachi ZeroCarbon, a division of Hitachi Europe, released the findings from the first-ever NHS initiative to deploy ground-breaking vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology after five Hitachi-funded Indra V2G chargers were installed for electric pharmacy truck fleet. The Trust received an average 6 per kWh drop in electricity costs.
• In December 2022, Fermata Energy and Phoenix Motorcars formed a long-term partnership for V2X bidirectional charging. According to the deal, Fermata Energy would integrate Phoenix's zero-emission drive system with its V2X bidirectional chargers and AI-driven software platform.
• In February 2020, a publicly financed V2G technology demonstration project received the all-clear in Japan in partnership with Mitsubishi. In several places throughout Japan, a vehicle-to-grid charging network for BEVs and PHEVs is to be established by 2025.
