3 EV Load Shifting Insights in Weekly Energy Update Emails
The Load Shifting Cloud Service, Electric Vehicle (EV) provides insights that can be included in Weekly Energy Update (WEU) V3 emails and the Weekly Energy Update Post Bill Report V3 emails to create an EV-specific WEU experience for utility customers that own EVs.
While this experience can be sent to EV owners on any rate plan, it was designed specifically for customers who are not on a time-of-use (TOU) rate plan. Typically, customers on a TOU rate plan would receive the EV Charging Coach Emails instead of the EV-specific Weekly Energy Update. However, this experience can also be sent to TOU customers who do not have modeled rates.
Load shifting EV insights are provided within Load Shifting EV modules that are purpose-built to be included in the WEU V3 emails. These insights are designed to educate customers about their charging habits and encourage them to shift their charging to hours the utility prefers, such as when there is low demand on the grid or high availability of renewable energy.
These are the Load Shifting EV modules you can add to a Weekly Energy Update email:
- EV Habits Checklist in Weekly Energy Update Emails Module: This module is included in the first EV-specific Weekly Energy Update email the customer receives, and then again every six months.
- EV Best Time Off-Peak in Weekly Energy Update Emails Module: This module is included in the second EV-specific Weekly Energy Update email the customer receives, and then again every six months.
- EV Load Shifting Main Insight in Weekly Energy Update Emails Module: This module is included in the Weekly Energy Update Post Bill Report email each month after the customer begins receiving the EV-specific emails.
