Mark, thanks so much for sending this fantastic article in:  http://cleantechnica.com/2011/06/15/electric-vehicle-owners-to-get-cash-back-for-selling-power-to-the-electric-grid-in-denmark-10000/

Here's the start of the article: 

Denmark is going to be the first test market for Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technology, it was announced yesterday. Electric Vehicle owners will be able sell back power from their EV batteries to the grid, with estimated compensation for EV owners of about $10,000 over the lifespan of the car.
Denmark has been chosen by the US company holding the V2G license because of the country’s smart grid advancements, especially the Danish grid’s ability to handle intermittent sources of energy such as wind (Denmark has nearly twice the amount of renewable energy on the grid than any other nation, percentage-wise — 34%).

This is a major element of the business side of green.  As other countries evolve into a smart grid, the use and distribution, the proper management of energy, will fuel great economic benefits.  This technology is coming very quickly to the rest of the world, and is one more reason we need to make the investment in electric vehicles.

We are filming four shows today, one of which will feature Joe Loberti, former APC guru, who will be talking about smart grids and companies that are making the components to harness and exploit all that energy.  Stay tuned.
