EV Phase-In Rates
Get help transitioning to demand-based delivery charges as a qualifying commercial customer operating EV chargers.
About
EV Phase-In Rates help commercial customers with EV chargers who are expanding operations manage their electricity bills by gradually introducing demand-based delivery charges. These charges increase in proportion to your site’s utilization level, giving you time to adapt. When your site reaches a load factor of 25% or higher your EV Phase-In Rate ends, and you will move to the standard rate schedule that applies to your account.*
How Your Tier is Calculated
The utilization of your site is measured by a load factor. When you apply, we determine your tier based on your load factor from the last full year of data. If your site has less than six months of load data, we place you in Tier 1. We review tiers twice per year to make sure you’re on the right rate.
