V2G: the double impact of Mobilize Power two-way charge

Imagine yourself at the wheel of your new Renault 5 E-Tech electric, the first car in a long series to be compatible with the Mobilize Power V2G two-way charge service…

You calmly drive back home; you plug your Renault 5 into your Mobilize Power Box Verso charging point; you enter your next departure time and the level of charge you want on your smartphone application. And that’s it.

Now the Mobilize V2G double impact begins.

The first impact is both very clever and very intelligent.

Very clever because, as part of your contract, Mobilize supplies your car   with carbon-neutral energy, with the guarantee of reducing the cost of recharging at home.

Very intelligent because your car and your Mobilize Powerbox charging point are bidirectional.

Without your battery ever falling below the minimum charge level you set, it allows the stored electricity to be fed back into your home and into the electricity grid, when there is a high demand for electricity. Mobilize resells this electricity at the best possible time, a good way of reducing your overall bill. In France for example, customers can save up to 600 euros in average in the first year*.

This automatic “gesture” therefore earns you money.

It’s completely effortless for you — you just plug in your vehicle, and the system automatically sends ectricity back to the grid, without any action needed on your part.

This automatic “gesture” is also good for the planet.

This is the second Mobilize V2G impact, which is even cleverer and even more intelligent.

Even cleverer because the electricity fed back into the grid is carbon-free. You’re relieving the grid with clean energy.

A fleet of 40,000 electric vehicles using V2G technology can deliver a combined power capacity equivalent to that of a medium-sized gas-fired power plant.

By 2035, tens of millions of electric vehicles will be on the road in Europe. A huge potential energy reserve! With V2G, the electric car becomes an opportunity for the electricity grid.  By feeding electricity generated from intermittent renewable sources like solar and wind back into the grid, Mobilize V2G technology helps increase the share of low-carbon energy and can contribute to improving the local energy mix.

Turning your own electric car into an energy reserve is possible… And today, this two-way charging function is available on all Renault Group electric vehicles: Alpine A290, Renault 4 E-Tech electric, Megane E-Tech electric, and Scenic E-Tech electric, and very soon Alpine 390.   This service was launched in France in 2024 and it will be deployed in the Netherlands, Germany and the UK in 2026.

Mobilize Power is all about simplicity, prioritising your need for mobility at all times. The double impact is clear: you save money and the planet thanks you!

* Average annual savings of €600 calculated by comparing the Mobilize Power offer (€261/month) with EDF’s Regulated Sales Tariff (€314/month). Reference prices as of 01/10/2025 (base option): Mobilize Power €0.1793 incl. VAT/kWh and the “V2G Hour” (1) benefit, accelerated by Renault Group during the first year and subject to change in subsequent years, vs EDF (Regulated Sales Tariff) €0.1952 incl. VAT/kWh.
Average savings are conditional upon meeting all of the following criteria:
i) owning a detached house of 120m² with electric heating consuming 17,692 kWh/year (average consumption according to ADEME reference);
ii) average vehicle consumption of 17 kWh/100 km;
iii) 10,000 km per year charged at home;
iv) daily home connection time of 14 hours.
