A year ago, we spoke with GM Energy Chief Revenue Officer Aseem Kapur about the company's vehicle-to-home (V2H) system with PowerBank battery storage.Now, he's back to update us on the evolution of GM's energy ecosystem. In this special mid-week edition of the podcast, Domenick Yoney and Tom Moloughney sit down with Aseem to discuss the real-world challenges and new solutions for EV owners today and what's on the way.We talk about the vehicle-to-grid enablement for GM cars to happen with an over-the-air update. We also tackle the critical issue of EV education at the dealership level and how GM's 3D virtual "EV Concierge" is designed to simplify the process for buyers.Finally, we look at how GM plans to resolve public charging fragmentation using the new GM Energy Pass—unifying access to major networks like Tesla and Ionna directly through the vehicle's native platform.
