Hi
I've been driving electric for two years. Maybe next year I can afford a Model S. I have a start up business developing tools for EV Charging (EVSE test equipment)
A question for the forum... I read that only 30% of EV drivers use 'Time of Use' electric rate plans in California. If the other 70% of drivers are paying regular residential rates for charging, they are paying way too much. They could be getting 30 -50% lower charging costs.
Why is this?
1. Don't know about EV rate plans
2. Don't really care about energy bill / solar panels keeps the bill low
3. It's too much hassle to get new/2nd meter installed to take advantage of EV rate plans
4 ??
Thanks
Neal
