Abstract
A technique for discharging an energy storage of a vehicle having a predetermined discharge limit threshold comprises performing a lookup in a database to determine whether a predetermined condition is met. The predetermined condition comprises a specific vehicle identification number being listed in the database. Next, initiating the discharging of the energy storage below a predetermined discharge limit threshold depending on a result of the lookup in the database.
