PG&E rate / schedule change a bust, for now.
PG&E asked the CPUC, California Public Utilities Commission, for a rate structure change that would have positives and negatives for the EV customer. Apparently the rate and schedule change didn’t go through on November 1st, as PG&E asked. Although that may always change in the future, it’s a signal for those who are interested in a separate meter to charge their EV to go forward, as I am still going to do.
Better news is that summer and winter off-peak tier 1 pricing went down $0.01729/kWh. This means my operating cost for my EV would be $15 in the summer and $18 in the winter, per month.
