I think the biggest flaw in V2G is the rainy week. After say 50% of the charge has been sucked out the cars may not have any more to give. The internet connected bidirectional charger may cost thousands plus you'd need at least $5 per kWh to justify extra use of the battery. A nearby relative has nice BYD and is now looking at another $20k for a smart solar system to complement it. Not sure it will ever pay for itself.

It's noble of Canberrans to feel good about using so much clean energy from far away. I understand the revolving restaurant on Black Mountain Tower no longer revolves and therefore should be replaced by a graceful wind turbine. I wonder if while driving from the ACT to Queanbeyan at night you can feel the street lighting getting a bit grubby. That's because ACT power is untainted by coal unlike the neighbours.

Big big boost for Ford EVs: loss per vehicle has dropped to $50,000! Tesla profits are down 45%. Mercedes, 21%, and Ford 35%. And half of EV owners would go back to petrol like a shot. One report says that the EV industry is on the brink of collapse.

Like all fantasies these days, taxpayers are helping this one limp along, even though most of them don't have an electric car, and have no intention of getting one, despite Blackout Bowen's wild speculation.

Solar 103 GwH wind 51GwH hydro 68 Gwh gas 72 GwH 33.3 % of the grid as of 10.30 am Aest 30 july 24.

And this is mid winter. Reenables. With what is not yet wired up and what is still coming, That % figure is destined to rise dramatically.
Nuclear will not be necessary along with coal, Diesel, or any other form of generation that is not clean.
A lot of people think that nuclear does not produce any co2 which is not the case. For every KwH of power produced 35 Grams of co2 goes into the atmosphere. So get it right.

So what is the point of all that solar, stacks of it a few hours
each side of midday. err provided it is not overcast.
Never heard of a wind drought ?
Batteries need to be enormous but where do you get the electricity
to recharge them in a few hours ?
For each days amount of recharge you need dedicated solar & wind about
eight times a days consumption. Also you need to hope that tomorrow
is not overcast and windless.
The more you look at it the more hopeless it becomes.

And today AirNZ says it is withdrawing its commitment to meet its former carbon emissions target by 2030! Says it is unsustainable.
Apparently not enough ‘hot air’ to keep it going. And presumably the conservative NZ government will not make a fuss about this change.

i think it's time the subject of renewables is put aside until they come up with Zero emission renewable technology !
It's simply nothing more than for some non-thinkers to keep stirring trouble !
