Ford is studying new technology that would allow drivers to communicate with our country’s electric power grids. This would make battery charging for vehicle reasonable and very easy to do. This is an effort by Ford and the utility companies to prepare an infrastructure to handle them.

Ford plans to have its electric Focus compact car available in 2011. They are testing plug-in hybrids in California to see how drivers can recharge their batteries from an electrical home outlet. It will be important to make use of the off peak hours for electrical use.

They are also changing their existing in car communication system, SYNC, so it can alert drivers when to recharge. Ford is working on having the ability to communicate directly with electric grids to prepare the home for the charging process.
