In California, Google, Tesla, Sunrun, and Pacific Gas and Electric are teaming up to launch a shared energy network.
Instead of building expensive new power stations, they are linking thousands of home batteries and solar panels together. When the local grid runs low on power, this network automatically shares stored electricity to keep homes running smoothly.
This setup pools home batteries and solar arrays so the whole neighborhood can share extra electricity when it is needed most.
You do not need to build anything new to help out. Your existing home solar setup or garage battery can quietly pitch in behind the scenes.
Your garage battery is becoming part of the power grid.
