V2H-CAPABLE GM EVS

Vehicle-to-home (V2H) or bidirectional charging enables energy to flow in two directions. Not only does it send energy from your home to your EV for charging (unidirectional)—it also enables you to send energy from your V2H-capable GM EV* back to your home when the grid is down (bidirectional), providing you with a brilliant new source of backup power.

The GM Energy PowerShift Charger and GM Energy V2H Enablement Kit shown requires an adequately charged and properly equipped GM EV (2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV, 2024 GMC Sierra EV, 2024 Chevrolet Blazer EV, 2024 Chevrolet Equinox EV, 2024 Cadillac LYRIQ, 2025 Chevrolet Silverado EV, 2025 GMC Sierra EV, 2025 Chevrolet Blazer EV, 2025 Chevrolet Equinox EV, 2025 Cadillac LYRIQ, 2025 Cadillac OPTIQ, 2025 Cadillac ESCALADE IQ, 2026 Cadillac VISTIQ, 2026 Cadillac LYRIQ, 2026 Cadillac LYRIQ-V, 2026 Cadillac ESCALADE IQ, anticipated 2026 Cadillac ESCALADE IQL, 2026 Cadillac CELESTIQ, 2026 Cadillac OPTIQ, 2026 Cadillac OPTIQ-V, 2026 Chevrolet Blazer EV, 2026 Chevrolet Equinox EV, 2026 Chevrolet Silverado EV, 2026 GMC Hummer EV SUV, 2026 GMC Hummer EV SUT, 2026 GMC Sierra EV, 2027 Chevrolet Bolt EV) having bidirectional charging capabilities, a properly equipped home, and proper grid interconnection.
