Jun 18, 2025 - Unveiling Utrecht`s Renault 5 Powered Supergrid!!

In this episode, Imogen Bhogal heads to Utrecht, the world`s first bidirectional city, to explore Europe`s most ambitious vehicle-to-grid (V2G) car-sharing project.
Partnering with WeDriveSolar, Mobilise, MyWheels, and Renault, the city is turning EVs — like the Renault 5 E-Tech — into tiny power plants, feeding energy back into the grid while parked. Utrecht has pledged to install 2,600 bidirectional chargers by 2025, and that bold vision is already reshaping how the city stores, uses, and earns from clean energy.
Imogen investigates how this project came to life, from navigating legacy grid infrastructure and standardisation headaches to tackling driver concerns over battery health and range anxiety. Could Utrecht`s success pave the way to accelerate V2G across the globe?! And will powering your home or even getting paid to plug in, become the new normal for EV drivers?
