Can managed charging reduce PG&E electric rates?
Details
Join ClimateLink and Xantha Bruso from PG&E as we address the hot topic of rising electricity rates and explore if managed EV charging can bring those rates down.
Can managed charging reduce electric rates?
- Many utilities are facing upward rate pressure
- EV charging will be a major source of load growth over the coming 20 years and has the potential to increase electric system throughput, thereby decreasing average customer rates
- However, the impact of EVs on rates depends on effective vehicle-grid integration strategies to minimize the electric T&D investment cost required to serve EV charging load
- PG&E has recently conducted an analysis that examines the future impact of EVs on rates under multiple scenarios of EV adoption and load management
- The analysis sheds light on the extent to which managed charging can help reduce electric rates in PG&E’s service territory.
