From nine city pilots to gigawatts V2G interaction accelerates

China's vehicle to grid interaction sped up in 2026, with the 15th plan targeting 50 million kilowatts of aggregated flexible charging by 2030. Cities and the grid are already showing real results.

Policy relay puts V2G on the fast track

From the first nine-city, thirty-project pilot in 2025 to the 2030 target of 50 million kilowatts, four times the 2025 level, top design gives clear expectation. Capital and operators can invest with confidence under that signal. On the ground, the practical call is to policy relay puts V2G on fast track, because that single step prevents most later disputes.

Cities break the scenario boundary

Hangzhou extends to malls and communities, Taiyuan covers 500 to 750 volts, Chongqing sets 2028 hard targets, and Shenzhen runs a 4.21 megawatt station linked to a virtual power plant, proving megawatt interaction works. We also stress that cities break the scenario boundary, since clear agreements protect both the service provider and the user.

Hubei recorded over 376,000 kilowatt hours discharged and Guangzhou reversed 15,000 kilowatt hours in one day. These numbers show V2G is shaving peaks, not just a slide-deck concept, and the commercial loop begins to close. In Yantai we keep insisting on build orderly charging first as the safest path through varied local conditions.

The local Yantai angle

Yantai's slow-charging, community-heavy base is natural soil for V2G. Dongshang New Energy and Dongdian Huichong lay 7 kilowatt orderly charging first, banking adjustable potential until policy and settlement arrive. Dongshang New Energy follows these principles with routine patrols and round-the-clock response for dependable daily service.
