Use the PG&E rate comparison tool to compare various plans based on your actual last 12 months of usage. BUT also do the simple 5 question estimator that will factor in new EV usage as well as any other behavioral changes. For example, you say your summers are hot, but if no one is home in the afternoon, could you timeshift some A/c usage to later in the evening?
Thanks for sharing that information with me. I could shift some usage of the AC to the afternoon probably because I work from home full time and my wife also works from home 3 or 4 days a week. I was using the rate tools they have on PG&E and it seems like it would be like $1k for the EV and then 600-700 for the electrical. That is based on 15k/miles a year 30% public charging. I guess my concern is how accurate are those PG&E rate tools? We commute for sports and my wife to work a couple times a week on average for about 120-150 miles round trip.
