PG&E offers two electric vehicle rate plans for residential customers. Home Charging, EV2-A combines your vehicle's electricity costs with those of your residence. EV-B involves the installation of another meter, which separates your vehicle's electricity costs from those of your home.

Both EV2-A and EV-B are non-tiered, time-of-use plans, which means that the rate you pay is based on the time of day you use the electricity.

NOTE: The EV-A rate is currently closed for new enrollments. Find information on EV-A (PDF, 430 KB).

Learn more about the transition from EV-A to Home Charging EV2-A, including when customer accounts will be transitioned, by visiting our Resources and FAQ page.
