Summary:

- The state of California has passed a new law that will require all new electric vehicles (EVs) sold in the state to have bidirectional charging capabilities by 2028.
- Bidirectional charging allows EVs to not only charge from the grid but also discharge their batteries to power homes, businesses, or the grid itself, providing a valuable source of energy storage.
- This new law aims to leverage the growing EV fleet as a distributed energy resource, helping to balance the grid and support the integration of more renewable energy sources.
