App Rate Plan - Ontario Hydro

[obliojim]

So the Charging Costs option finally appeared in my Tesla app.

It looks like we can set home charging rates - given the option of Toronto Hydro or Ontario. If I choose the latter - I'm in Guelph - I'm given the option of choosing a rate plan - HOC-R ; HOC-RS, HOC-RSTOU or HOC-RTOU - and there is no guidance on how to find this out, and a Google search is rather unsuccessful.

Any guidance?

All I can decipher is
R = Residential
TOU = Time Of Use

I just picked the Toronto Hydro TOU maybe with an R option and manually adjusted the rates to what’s on my bill.

I just tried a one in my app, looks like RSTOU is Residential Seasonal Time Of Use

In my case it is giving me the wrong rate and when I try to override with the correct rate it wont allow me. Is there any workaround here? My provider is Alectra Utility and it is not on there. Any help is much appreciated.

I'm in the same boat. Trying to set up my rates for Waterloo North Hydro but can't edit the price fields.

Where to you enter this in the app?

 

[DriveElecModY]

Charge stats - settings - select home - then under prices click edit. It allows you to put the cursor on the field but cannot edit. I hope Tesla fixes this soon. Seems to be a glitch.

I don't see this in my app. I am on iOS and I don't see a setting for Charge Stats. We are talking about the default Tesla app issued by the company, are we not?

The only part of the app that seems t deal with charging is the lightning bolt under the car graphic. Then there are settings for Controls, Climate, Location, Summon, Security, Upgrades, Service and Roadside.

Might need to update the app then. My iPhone shows the Charge Stats as one of the front page options, but I haven’t tinkered with it yet.

Currently, it looks like it only works on newer vehicles - maybe those with MCU2 or better? I don't have access to it for my Model S with MCU1, but do have it with the Model Y.

My app instantly showed this after uograding to mcu2

How do you enable this on the app? I don’t see it. Brand new MYLR.

Showed up for me today after a software update on my MYLR.

I was able to change the rates after choosing RSTOU. Shows (edited) now

I received my MYLR 3 weeks ago, the charging stats appeared in the app only after the car software was updated to version 2022.3.101.1
From there I created my custom plan using my real electricity rates. N.B.: include HST for more accurate cost.
The app allows you to customize everything i.e. seasons as well as off peak, on peak and mid peak rates and times

 

[thebarold]

I am on toronto hydro time of use and the rates don’t match what is on my bill but is there a chance other charges are being blended in (like delivery, regulatory and HST?
As gas prices are inclusive of taxes that would be a more fair comparison.

I made a spreadsheet to calculate actual costs, using Toronto Hydro's published rate information, and it matched my bill within a few cents. I'm on tiered pricing, not TOU, but I manually entered the cost for tier 1 into the Tesla app. (I've never used enough electricity in a month to reach tier 2).

Fellas - I’m manually setting the rate plan in my app and it wants me to enter “buy” and “sell” prices for electricity. Any idea what that’s all about? My rate plan just has good ol’ on/off/super off peak. I don’t “sell” back anything but the app won’t let me enter a zero in that field. Thoughts?

I believe it's if you have a home solar/battery system and are feeding power to the grid. If you don't have this, it can be ignored. I set both the buy and sell rate for what I pay.
