How does optimized charging work?
Once your Tesla vehicle is connected in the registration process and you've been approved for enrollment in the PGE Smart Charging Program, you will start having your charging optimally scheduled each time you plug in at home.
Our application identifies the lowest-cost periods you can charge in order to meet your upcoming driving needs while considering overall grid conditions. You'll automatically be scheduled to charge during those periods.
You'll receive notifications about your upcoming schedule via the channel you prefer (Web and/or SMS) and can skip your proposed charge schedule if you need.
