Duke Energy is teaming up with a trio of automakers on a pilot
program aimed at offering price certainty to owners of electric
vehicles in North Carolina.
The Charlotte-based utility holding company said it is working
with General Motors, Ford Motor and BMW of North America to launch
a flat-fee residential charging subscription program in the
state.
Duke said the 12-month pilot plan will allow residential
customers to use up to 800 kilowatt hours a month to charge an
electric vehicle at home for a fixed monthly fee of $19.99 in its
Duke Energy Carolinas service area and $24.99 in its Duke Energy
Progress service area.
Duke noted that the average EV driver uses less than 15 kilowatt
hours a day, meaning the plan will offer nearly twice the amount
per month needed by the average driver.
Duke said enrollment for the plan begins Sept. 1, with the pilot
program slated to launch Nov. 1.
