Using EVs for energy storage has been discussed in the literature. Vehicles like the Ford F150 Lightning are designed to provide power to buildings. 120 million EVs will provide 12 TWh battery capacity. If 25 % of the capacity can be used for storage, the 120 million fleet will provide 3.75 TWh capacity, which represents a large fraction of the 5.5 TWh capacity needed.
The lithium-ion battery, supercapacitor and flywheel energy storage technologies show promising prospects in storing PV energy for power supply to buildings, with the applicable storage capacity, fast response, relatively high efficiency and low environmental impact. However, further efforts are required to lower the cost for wider applications in buildings. More research
