OVO Energy unveils ‘best value’ plan to help Britons save £350 and harness ‘cheap’ power

“At OVO, we are committed to providing our customers with access to clean and affordable energy where possible, if we’re to reach our net zero by 2035 goal.”

In January, OVO Energy announced a new trial scheme, that allows EV drivers to save hundreds of pounds with a new technology that will help save money and help balance the National Grid.

Together with Kaluza, the energy giant announced a world-first ‘Vehicle-to-Everything’ (V2X) trial called INFLEXION, which allows the car to charge up its battery during times of the day when electricity is cheap, like in the middle of the night.

With this stored electricity, the car could then sell power back to the National Grid during peak times, when electricity is expensive.

By doing so, electric vehicles could play a critical role in preventing winter blackouts in the future, as their batteries are powerful enough to store large amounts of energy.
