    A fleet of plug-in electric vehicles sits ready to roll at Los Angeles Air Force Base in El Segundo, Calif., on Oct. 31, 2014. The new fleet is the first installation in the Department of Defense to replace its entire non-tactical fleet with electric and hybrid vehicles. The electric vehicles will charge directly from the local utility grid enabling Los Angeles AFB personnel to utilize the electric vehicles as transportation within the base. When called-upon, and when connected to the electric vehicle, the bi-directional charging station will switch power flow directions in order to support vehicle-to-grid energy request by discharging the electric vehicle’s onboard battery.
