Now with a map indicating the availability and pricing of BMW's #V2G bidirectional wallbox. Do the price differences reflect national support schemes?

Yesterday, I posted about the availability and pricing of the BMW bidirectional DC wallbox, which enables vehicle-to-grid (V2G) functionality in combination with BMWs from the 'Neue Klasse' range. Users can save on charging costs and potentially earn money by charging and discharging kWhs smartly. I checked the national website for a few EV frontrunner countries, and people have asked about other markets. I have now done that for all European countries, including prices. It is interesting to see that there are significant price differences for what appears to be the same product. Does this already account for national grant schemes? In comparison to my own research into smart energy tariffs and services in Europe, it is notable that the UK is not yet included on BMW's list. The same applies to Finland, Spain, Poland, Czech Republic and the Baltic states. However, Austria, Portugal and Italy are notably included. | 17 comments on LinkedIn

This is a surprisingly sharp price for BMW's bidirectional DC #V2G home charger. At only €1,500 more than their standard AC charging point, it's a great deal.
2175 € (vs. 699 € for the regular AC home charger)
