Electric Vehicle Time of Use Rate (EV-TOU)
Duquesne Light
The EV-TOU rate is a voluntary pilot program geared towards residential and small and medium commercial customers. Customers who own or lease an electric vehicle or commercial customers who own charging stations can elect to patriciate in this program that is designed to promote overnight vehicle charging with lower rates in off-peak hours. This allows participants to charge when there is lower demand on the grid, offering lower costs to customers as well as environmental benefits. The EV-TOU rate will be applied to all load associated with the applicable meter, not just the electricity used by the vehicle.
