SK Rent-a-car V2G Demonstration project Jeju

Summary

SK rent-a-car plans to utilize ten Hyundai ‘IONIC 5’ vehicles operated at Jeju branch for this demonstration project, and also create a space dedicated to the demonstration of V2G technology within the branch. In the meantime, the institute will install ten V2G chargers for the project and demonstrate the relevant technologies and system. The V2G chargers that will be installed at Jeju branch are slow chargers. And one unit has a capacity of charging 7kW and discharging 5kW per hour. It means that it is possible to charge 70kW and discharge 50kW per hour through the installation of ten chargers. The operation of the ten units for eight hours a day makes it possible to store up to 16,800kWh in EVs for a month, which is equivalent to the electricity consumed by about 34 four-person households for a month. (※ Based on the average monthly power consumption of 350kWh for a four-person household)
