GM demonstrated its new home energy business by staging a blackout at a mansion in Beverly Hills — and then running power off a Chevy Silverado EV.

Last week, General Motors summoned a small group of journalists to a Beverly Hills mansion to witness the future of home energy. And it started with a preemptive blackout. As sunset fell across the Hollywood Hills, the chief engineer from General Motors flipped a breaker and disconnected the five-bedroom home from the grid.

The company recently announced that it would start rolling out bidirectional charging in 2025. In the home battery and solar installation market, Tesla dominates. Hyundai offers its own home energy integration, which includes solar panels and battery storage, alongside its EVs like the Ioniq 5 and 6, which have bidirectional charging. But the automaker has said it’s more focused on vehicle-to-grid power over vehicle-to-home.
