TOKYO -- Hitachi will provide local governments with a system to quickly dispatch electric vehicles to supply energy to areas in the event power is cut off following a disaster, Nikkei has learned.
Auto dealers and transportation companies will need to register the number of cars and their recharging status with Hitachi's system in advance. Following a disaster, the most suitable EVs will be dispatched using information from traffic patterns and dealers near evacuation centers.
