汽车制造商将电动车变身家庭备用电源

汽车制造商正在通过车辆到家庭的电力传输技术进入家庭能源业务，为消费者提供备用电源解决方案。1福特推出了F-150 PowerBoost混动和F-150 Lightning电动皮卡的家庭电力备用系统，成本约为1,100美元，相比传统发电机和全家备用系统更为经济。1其中F-150 Lightning可提供2-3天的电力供应，而F-150 PowerBoost混动车可维持长达5天的电力。1

福特首席执行官Amanda Roraff表示："对于已经拥有兼容车型的客户来说，你已经拥有电源，它就在你的车道上。"1美国已有超过630,000辆车具备此功能。1

特斯拉、通用汽车、起亚等多家车企也在相继推出类似功能。1通用汽车与WeaveGrid的合作允许用户在停电时自动从电动车供电，特斯拉Cybertruck提供完整的车家双向电力传输功能。1

这一技术的推广恰逢电动车市场增速放缓之际。1美国纯电动车销售年同比下降23.8%（截至2026年上半年），这促使车企寻求新的业务领域。1业内人士认为，车辆备用电源系统将在电动车销售放缓的背景下为车企开辟新的商业机会。1

Automobile manufacturers are entering the home energy business by leveraging electric vehicle technology to provide residential backup power through vehicle-to-home power transfer systems 1. Ford has introduced home power backup systems for both its F-150 PowerBoost hybrid and F-150 Lightning electric pickup trucks, while Tesla, General Motors, Kia, and other automakers are rolling out similar capabilities 1.

Ford's solution costs approximately $1,100, making it less expensive than traditional generators and whole-home backup systems 1. The F-150 Lightning can supply power for two to three days, while the F-150 PowerBoost hybrid can provide backup power for up to five days 1. According to Ford CEO Amanda Roraff, "For customers who already own a compatible vehicle model, you already have power—it's sitting in your driveway" 1.

Over 630,000 vehicles in the United States already have this functionality 1. General Motors has partnered with WeaveGrid to allow users to automatically draw power from electric vehicles during outages, and Tesla's Cybertruck offers full bidirectional vehicle-to-home power transfer capabilities 1.

Industry experts view this technology as a significant new business opportunity for automakers, particularly as U.S. pure electric vehicle sales have declined 23.8 percent year-over-year as of the first half of 2026 1. The vehicle-to-home sector represents a potential new revenue stream as the automotive industry navigates the broader EV sales slowdown 1.
