    My understanding is that the biggest gain from V2G (vehicle to grid) technology comes from wind energy. Since wind blows mainly at night, the need for wind energy from the power plant comes mainly during the day. It makes wind much more usable. There are at least 4 states that could conceivable sell all the power needed in the whole US (and I would betcha a few that are close).
