MEDIA RELEASE
Hawaii Electric Light Company has pilot electric vehicle (EV) charging rates available. The rates are designed to help promote EVs and encourage charging during off-peak hours. Customers who sign up for the optional time-of-use rates are offered lower rates from 9:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. Charging during off-peak hours helps us take advantage of more off-peak renewable resources and avoid running more expensive diesel generators during peak, high-demand periods.
The pilot EV rates are available to 300 customers who plan to charge highway-capable, four-wheeled electric vehicles. The rates will remain in effect for about two more years. For more information about the EV rate program, visit http://goev.heco.com or email GoEV@heco.com.
