Perspective

EV Leaders: Commonwealth Edison

EV Adoption

“A lot of it is asking the customers, when you’re thinking about purchasing an EV, or installing charging, both residential and commercial, let us know so we can be a resource and understand what the load impacts are to the grid. We’re continuing to get smarter there, as well as using internal data scientists and analytics teams to start to track that. It’s still evolving.”

EV Leaders: CMS Energy

EV Adoption

“We have EV specialists who will advise you on charging station options, get that charger installed, and provide a $500 rebate – $1,000 if you’re income-qualified – to cover the cost. We make sure you are taking advantage of our off-peak charging rate and introduce you to other energy- and cost-saving programs.”

EV Adoption

“It’s a little hard to quantify, but a goal on my end is making sure it’s a little fun or at least engaging for the customer to charge the EV at the time we need them to and providing them with enough value that they don’t mind delaying their charging, such that the electric demand hits our systems when it is optimal.”
