GRIDLINQ V2G CASE STUDY SUMMARY
========================================================================

COASTAL FLEET DEPOT AT BAYSIDE CAMPGROUND
Campground with contracted overnight fleet parking — Wilmington, North Carolina

Off-season sites leased to a fleet that pays twice

An off-season campground leased 40 sites to an electric delivery fleet, turning idle winter loops into a weekday-predictable V2G resource.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
PROPERTY PROFILE
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Scale:        180 sites, 40 leased to fleet
Service:      Upgraded three-phase feeder to fleet loop
V2G enabled:  40 fleet bays + 28 seasonal pedestals

------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE STARTING POINT
------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Sites sat empty from November through March with fixed infrastructure costs continuing.
- The local fleet operator needed overnight depot charging without building its own yard.
- Storm outages regularly took the bathhouse and office offline.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE BUILD
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Phase 1: Feeder upgrade
  A dedicated three-phase feeder was pulled to the winter loop, sized for simultaneous fleet charging and export.
Phase 2: Depot bays
  Forty bidirectional bays were commissioned with departure-time scheduling so every van leaves at target charge.
Phase 3: Dual revenue
  The campground bills the fleet for delivered energy and shares grid program revenue earned from parked capacity overnight.
Phase 4: Critical circuit
  Bathhouse, office and well pump were moved onto an islandable circuit backed by depot capacity.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
RESULTS
------------------------------------------------------------------------
$52k           Off-season revenue from previously idle sites
100%           Fleet departures met at target state of charge
14 hrs         Bathhouse and office uptime in a winter storm outage

------------------------------------------------------------------------
MEASURED OUTCOMES (BEFORE / AFTER)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
November–March site revenue
  Before: $0   After: $52,000   Change: new line item
Fleet energy delivered and billed
  Before: 0 MWh   After: 486 MWh / yr   Change: +$41k billed
Fleet departures at target charge
  Before: n/a   After: 100%   Change: 0 missed runs
Bathhouse outage runtime
  Before: 0 hrs   After: 14 hrs   Change: +14 hrs

------------------------------------------------------------------------
PROJECT ECONOMICS
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Annual value:   $52,000 off-season revenue plus shared program income
Capital:        $96,000 feeder upgrade, cost-shared with the fleet operator
Payback:        9 months from first fleet night
Time to value:  10 weeks from lease signature to depot go-live

"November used to be dead. Now the quietest loop on the property is the one making money five nights a week."
