Don’t be caught off guard as electric vehicles start popping up in your territory. Clusters of EVs may suddenly appear as customers “keep up with the Jones”— leaving little time to ensure grid infrastructure isn’t overburdened and locational power delivery isn’t compromised.
You can prepare by testing out a Residential EV Pilot:
EV Behavioral Pilot
- Uses rewards to nudge your customers’ charging behavior off peak
- Ensures recurring positive utility/customer touchpoints
- Provides EV monitoring through either AMI data disaggregation or vehicle telematics—allowing almost any customer to join
Managed Charging Pilot
- Uses vehicle telematics to schedule the charging of program participant vehicles
- Turns your customers’ EVs into grid assets
- Helps you understand the impact of load control events
For either pilot, Itron provides all the software and services you need—with no hardware or installation necessary—and can be off the ground in weeks and concluded in under a year.
