How to tell when your EV charges? How much energy does it use? When does the charge end?
Youtilitics analyzes your usage data directly from your utility. The data is split into baseline (always-on equipment), HVAC, EV charging, and the rest. This chart shows instantly when the EV started charging and when it stopped.
Charging your EV when you get back to work can waste up to $50 every month.
Most EV have a schedule option in the app where you can specify the acceptable time to charge.
Youtilitics can help you confirm that the schedule is correct.
Youtilitics instantly confirms the charging schedule has changed and you started saving money.
Here is an example of South California Edison summer rates:
The average commute in America is
about 53 minutes per day, which amounts to
about 40 miles per day.
Electric vehicles use about 250 to 350 Wh per mile, so the total amount of energy used for commuting
is
about
12,000Wh per day, or 12kWh.
300 Wh/mi * 40 mi = 12,000 Wh/day = 12kWh/day
Using the SCE summer rates, plugging an EV when getting back to work at 6pm, and charge what was used to commute, would amount to about $7 per day, or $140 per month.
Now the same scenario with the EV being charged after 9pm would only cost $4.32 per day, or about $90 per month.
Simply offsetting the EV charging schedule could instantly yield over $50 in savings each month!
