UKPN claims that more than 1.3 million homes could be powered by utilising electric car batteries when they are parked in long-stay car parks. The network operator suggests that 4.3GW of flexible electricity could be unlocked by filling up electric cars’ batteries in long-stay car parks when energy is cheap and demand is low and injecting power back into the system at peak times.
