Exciting news! Optiwatt and the California Energy Commission (CEC) have enrolled 11K new grid-connected EVs -- helping Californian EV owners save money on their electrical bills. #GreenTechnology #Sustainability #UrbanInnovation
Big Optiwatt news this week!! Six months ago, Optiwatt and the California Energy Commission (CEC) joined forces to help over 22,000+ California EV owners save money on their electrical bills. We’re excited to share that we’re halfway there! Together we have enrolled 11,000 new grid-connected EVs since launch, halfway to the ambitious phase 1 target set in the CEC’s Responsive, Easy Charging Products With Dynamic Signals (REDWDS) grant. The program goal is to bring the benefits of EV-managed charging to more Californians, with a focus on rate savings and affordability for all. Optiwatt shares that mission and is proud that ~40% of the new enrollments come from California disadvantaged communities. This rapid growth showcases the ability for EV-managed charging to scale when you combine a compelling value story for drivers, the best customer experience, and a motivated partner. We’re excited to reach even more Californian EV drivers and save them even more with real-time rate-optimized charging, as dynamic rate programs become available. #Optiwatt #EVCharging #EV #Utilities #CaliforniaEnergyCommission #EnergyRates #EnergyEquity #California #VPPs
