Usage of the approved charger will also not impact the LEAF\u2019s battery warranty.<\/p>\n<p>Bi-directional charging technology means not only charging the Nissan LEAF, but also sending energy stored in the vehicle battery back to the building or the grid. Ideal for companies with fleet vehicles, the Fermata Energy Demand Charge Management application, along with the FE-15 charger, continuously monitors a building&#8217;s electrical loads, and may draw on the Nissan LEAF&#8217;s energy to provide power to the building during more expensive high-demand periods. In states with utility demand response programs, bi-directional-enabled Nissan LEAF vehicles (MY2013 and later) are able to safely send energy stored in the battery to the grid during peak energy demand times, such as in summer months.<\/p>\n<p><em>News item from Nissan<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nissan has worked with Fermata Energy to develop a bi-directional charger for use with the Nissan LEAF electric vehicle in the United States.
