Ground Rules• When asking questions, please wait to be identified, and state

your name and organization (into a microphone for remote participants).

• Remote participants:– Remain on mute unless identified.– Use the Raise Hand feature.

• Limit questions to clarify content on the current slide.• Question & answer sessions will be held after each respective

speaker.• Hold discussion for follow-ups since certain IOU representatives

have limited time here.• 30-second stretch breaks every 30-minutes

6

Introductions• Introduce– Name– Organization• Indicate whether you are an MDMA or other

– Position• Start in the room, then online:

7

Today’s Objectives• Understand from a regulatory perspective:

– CPUC actions in pursuit of PEV Submetering.– The structure and goals for the Submetering Pilots

• Clarify the key interactions between the IOU, MDMA, and Customer:– Processes to enroll customers, exchange data to complete

subtractive/submetered billing, disburse incentive payments, and more– Assist the customer in filling out a complete and accurate enrollment form

on the first attempt– Describe life cycle of the EV Submetering Pilot Program in its entirety and

recognize key trigger points– Define data reporting requirements and submeter reading data obligations– Describe the incentive payment process– Know who their point of contact would be for each IOU for specific processes

Regulatory and Policy Imperatives• Adopt rules “to develop infrastructure sufficient to overcome

any barriers to the widespread adoption and use of plug-in hybrid and electric vehicles…”

• 1.5 Million Zero Emission Vehicles by 2025• 80% Reduction in Transportation GHG by 2050

• Changing California’s transportation sector to one dominated by zero emission vehicles, powered by electricity and hydrogen, is essential to meeting federal air quality standards and long-term climate goals.

Submetering Concept1. Meter: Non-utility (customer-

owned) load measurement device specifically for PEVs

2. Protocols to integrate meter (accuracy & communication standards, third-party registration and service requirements) with utility programs

Billing Models (between the customer, MDMA and IOU) are detailed within the Submetering Roadmap in D.13-11-002.

14

Benefits• Maximize the value of EV Ownership• Utility Reliability and Enable Notification• Utilize PEVs as a Grid Resource

Encourage and Increase PEV Adoption

15

Maximize the Value of EV Ownership

• Access to IOUs’ PEV Time-of-Use Rates– Low-Cost or embedded metering technology– Avoid separate service or electrical upgrade

• Increase use of Low Carbon Fuels– Oil refiners pay PEV drivers per the LCF Standard

• Overcome barriers to charging station installations– Principal agency problem (cost assignment) in

Multi-Unit Dwelling and Commercial Facilities

16

Utility Reliability & Notification

Based on CEC Low Adoption in CED 2014-2024 Final Forecast, 3.3kW PHEV and 6.6kW BEV

• Understand customer behaviors• Measure & minimize grid impacts • Improve customer service

17

Use PEVs as a Grid Resource• Verification and settlement of potential

storage, demand response, or other grid services

• Unlock and enable innovation from third party providers (PEV Charging Apps or Memberships)

18

Goals for the Pilot• Evaluate customer demand under different

submetering scenarios• Evaluate billing integration and communications

costs under different submetering scenarios• Evaluate the customer experience to determine

customer benefits under submetering• Evaluate the potential impacts submetering can

have on supporting the State’s ZEV goals

19

Guiding Principles• Support collaboration between stakeholders• Avoid prematurely setting a “California

Standard” that might run counter to national efforts

• Remain open to new technologies and business models in the evolving PEV market.

20

Evaluating Customer Experience• Comparison of the total cost of metering services• Access to PEV tariffs• Multiple Submeter MDMAs and PEVs operating behind a

primary meter• Utility disconnection capability• Customer satisfaction• Reliability of Data, Technology, and Service• Service and Technology Innovations• Technology Standardization• Cost minimization
