The Multinational Ford and Sunrun Close Partnership to Bring V2H Technology, Which Promises to Power the Electric F-150 Lightning at Users’ Homes

The multinational Ford has closed a new partnership in the automotive sector with Sunrun to bring V2H (Vehicle-to-Home) technology to consumers of its new electric pickup truck. Ford’s lineup of pickups will gain a new member: the F-150 Lightning. The F series of trucks has been the favorite among Americans for 44 consecutive years and will have its first electric version, with one detail: the highest torque of all trucks in the family. The electric F-150 will be offered in three models: XLT, Lariat, and Platinum.

The V2H connection is made possible with the Ford Charge Station Pro of 80A, which is used in the long-range version of the pickup. The F-150 Lightning can power about 9.6 kilowatts of energy through the larger lower ports on the CCS plug and feed back into the house’s power panel. When power is restored to the grid, the charging station will reverse to recharge the Lightning’s battery. According to the multinational, the new technology has the capacity to power a home during a power outage for about 3 days.

This is an estimate and assumes that consumers take more reasonable steps to reduce electricity usage until their service is restored. For example, to reduce energy use without heating their hot tubs.
