A method for estimating a virtual distance corresponding to power supplied by an electric vehicle (EV) to offboard loads includes monitoring one or more enabling conditions comprising at least one of a speed of the EV, an active/inactive mode for supplying power to one or more V2X loads, a net charging/discharging state of a battery of the electric vehicle, a plug-in charging state of the electric vehicle, and a wirelessly charging state of the electric vehicle. In response to the one or more enabling conditions, selectively integrating power output at least one of by the battery of the EV to the offboard loads and at the one or more V2X loads to generate an integrated power output value and converting the integrated power output value to a virtual distance.
