TOU-C is 7 days a week... which is WILD.Whether EV2-A will save you money really depends on what loads you have that cannot be moved out of the Peak hours. If you live in the East Bay or Central Valley where you have a lot of A/C that you cannot avoid during 4-9pm, then EV2 may not be good for you. Keep in mind that TOU-C has the same Peak hours but the Peak and Off-Peak are closer to the same price than EV2-A. TOU-D is 5-8pm so it would be easier to avoid A/C during those hours. Depending on how much EV charging you do relative to your household consumption, the lower cost of EV charging could dominate the calculation.
Pandemic household usage patterns are different than they used to be, so keep that in mind too.
Summary:
TOU-D Peak M-F 5-8pm
- Summer Peak=$0.36476 Off-Peak=$0.26980
- Winter Peak=$0.29089 Off-Peak=$0.27351
TOU-C Peak M-F 4-9pm
- Summer Baseline Peak=$0.3270 Off-Peak=$0.26356
- Summer Over Baseline Peak=$0.41333 Off-Peak=$0.34989
- Winter Baseline Peak= $0.22991 Off-Peak=$0.21258
- Winter Over Baseline Peak=$0.31624 Off-Peak=$0.29891
EV2-A Peak 4-9pm every day Part-Peak 3-4pm, 9p-12mid
- Summer Peak=$0.47861 Part-Peak=$0.36812 Off-Peak=$0.16611
- Winter Peak=$0.35150 Part-Peak=$0.33480 Off-Peak=$0.16611
All of these plans have the new 4 month long Summer season June-September. Earlier plans were 6 months May-October.
P.S. I detest the "Baseline Credit" nomenclature in the TOU-C tariff. They should just say Baseline and Over Baseline like I did above.
