Businesses, transit agencies and school districts that are considering making a switch to commercial electric vehicles are now able to take advantage of SDG&E’s Power Your Drive for Fleets program. Its innovative pricing plan, the Electric Vehicle-High Power (EV-HP) rate, makes it possible to reap both financial and environmental benefits by powering fleets with electricity. Businesses that sign up for the plan can choose the level of power to subscribe to for their charging needs and pay for it with a fixed monthly subscription fee.
The EV-HP pricing plan also enables businesses to save by charging during times of
the day when demand for electricity is low or renewable energy generation is high.
Charging during grid-friendly hours ensures that the growing adoption of electricpowered equipment doesn’t strain the grid during peak periods and require costly grid
enhancements.
The adoption of the EV-HP rate complements SDG&E’s Power Your Drive for Fleets
Program to build charging infrastructure for a minimum of 3,000 plug-in mediumduty and heavy-duty electric vehicles and equipment, including transit buses, school
buses, delivery trucks and forklifts. This initiative also supports the electrification of
refrigerated semi-truck trailers, which are vital for transporting perishable goods. For
