WALLBOX’S GROUNDBREAKING BIDIRECTIONAL CHARGER
Quasar 2 transforms your electric vehicle into a powerful energy storage system, delivering cleaner, cheaper energy to your home. This marks a significant milestone in the evolution of energy management, as Quasar 2 brings advanced V2X technology, enabling energy flow between your EV and home, and providing backup power during outages.

QUASAR 2, AN ENERGY MANAGEMENT SOLUTION
Your charging system is now an energy management solution. With more features than any other charger, Quasar 2 will redefine energy use at home.

-    Vehicle-to-Home: Power your home with the energy stored in your EV. Whether you’re storing energy from your solar panels or the grid, you’ll save big during peak hours.
-    Solar Charging: Harness the full power of your solar PV system. Avoid high grid energy prices when you charge your EV with 100% solar energy or a mix of solar and grid energy.
-    Dynamic Load Management: Maximize charging speed while staying within your home or building’s power limit. When overall energy consumption is high, Dynamic Load Management lowers your charging speed. When consumption is low, charge at maximum speed.
-    Vehicle-to-Grid: Send energy from your EV back to the grid during peak hours to earn incentives from your utility company and support widespread EV adoption by helping to stabilize the grid.
-    Backup Power: Quasar 2 enables you to use your vehicle’s battery as a backup during an outage. The system quickly identifies outages, ensuring your home remains powered with backup energy, supporting uninterrupted operation of your appliances for up to three days.
