Yippie! It is a little late but better than never. Some of us already have 1 kW inverters for emergency house power and the largest I know of is rated at 3 kW.

PG&E Unveils Hybrid Car That Can Power Your House
(BCN) SUNNYVALE Pacific Gas & Electric Co. today unveiled a prototype new hybrid car that could be used to power its owner's home during blackouts or times of high power cost.
The car uses Vehicle-to-Grid, known as V2G, technology. The technology turns the vehicle, a modified Toyota Prius, into an electricity storage system that can be plugged in to a standard wall outlet, both to charge its batteries and with the flip of a switch to add its own stored power to the grid.
