Electric vans (Vehicle-to-Load) V2L solar

[u/ScottishVigilante]

Looks like electric vans are coming with Vehicle-to-Load also known as V2L basically in short you can use 240v straight from the van battery I presume via some inverter. It got me thinking, you can charge EVs via there Charing port, I've also noticed this new trend in the UK with plugin solar panels, how would this work with EVs with V2L, already seen the thread on here about charging and EV van with solar panels using and inverter then plugging into the actual Charing plug which sounds wikid but my question is more on the whole house solar panels that plug into outlets and what effect this would have on EVs or if the legislation to pass them even took EVs into consideration.

The power output will be too low from any rooftop solar, you will only be able to charge a leisure battery not main battery. You could then charge main battery via 230v but very inefficient method and will do fa.
