GM and PG&E offer an incentive package for managed EV charging program

Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) and GM Energy are offering an incentive package for PG&E customers who buy or lease a new Chevrolet, GMC or Cadillac EV and choose to sign up for a managed charging program.

The Smart Charge Bundle, available at participating dealerships, includes a GM Energy PowerShift or PowerUp 2 home charger at no additional cost, and $15 in monthly bill credits on customers’ PG&E bills after installation.

The PowerUp 2 charger delivers everyday Level 2 charging, while the PowerShift Charger can be paired with GM Energy equipment and a compatible EV to support bidirectional charging.

Through PG&E’s EV Charge Manager program, participating customers can receive a $15 monthly bill credit, and may save up to an additional $50 per month, by shifting charging to periods when electricity costs and demand are lower. Managed charging automatically schedules charging during lower-cost periods. Customers can override a managed-charging session when necessary.

WeaveGrid supplies the grid orchestration software that optimizes charging and helps prevent localized strain on the grid.

“Customers don’t want to think about when their car charges,” said Apoorv Bhargava, CEO and cofounder of WeaveGrid. “They just want it to be ready and affordable. This bundle makes everything simple and easy.”
