New ChargePerks program to benefit California EV drivers

By Michelle Froese | July 16, 2024

WeaveGrid, a software company that enables rapid electric vehicle (EV) adoption on the electric grid, has announced ChargePerks California, a new WeaveGrid program funded in part by the California Energy Commission (CEC). California drivers looking to save money on electric vehicle (EV) charging and support the state’s clean energy future can now join the program.

Earn while you charge

ChargePerks California offers EV drivers a chance to earn up to $50 in rewards while contributing to a more resilient California grid. Participants can also save on their monthly electric bills by charging at the lowest-cost, most efficient times for the electric grid.

Benefits 

  • $50 enrolment gift card: Simply sign up and receive a welcome gift card of your choosing.
  • Automatic smart charging: WeaveGrid technology analyzes your charging habits to create a personalized smart charging schedule for your electric vehicle. This helps you save money by charging during off-peak hours when electricity rates are lower.
  • Charge with cleaner energy: Automatic Smart Charging prioritizes low-cost, renewable energy whenever available.
  • Personalized insights: Gain valuable data on your charging costs, energy use, and habits with the WeaveGrid dashboard and a weekly charge summary delivered straight to your inbox.
  • Electric grid impact: By charging smarter with WeaveGrid, you’ll contribute to a more reliable and resilient electricity grid for all Californians, especially during peak demand periods.

Qualify

  • Be a customer of Southern California Edison (SCE), Los Angeles Department of Water & Power (LADWP), San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E), Sacramento Municipal Utility District (SMUD), or Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) and charge at home within their service territory.
  • Own or lease a qualifying Tesla electric vehicle.
  • Currently be enrolled in a Time of Use (TOU) rate with your utility provider.
  • Maintain a vehicle connection for the program duration.
  • Not currently enrolled in another utility-sponsored managed charging program.
“ChargePerks is a fantastic opportunity for electric vehicle drivers in California to reduce their electric bills and support a sustainable future,” says Apoorv Bhargava, co-founder and CEO of WeaveGrid. “Our innovative technology at WeaveGrid allows drivers to unlock significant savings for themselves while helping to ensure a reliable electricity grid for everyone and helping meet California’s clean energy goals.”
