Once your EV is connected in the registration process and you've been enrolled, your charging will be optimally scheduled each time you plug in at home.

WeaveGrid identifies the lowest-cost periods you can charge in order to meet your upcoming driving needs (while considering overall grid conditions) and automatically schedules your EV to charge during those periods.

You'll receive notifications about your upcoming schedule through your preferred method (web and/or SMS texts) and can skip your proposed charge schedule if needed.

During periods of high electricity demand during the summer, called Smart Charging Events, your managed charging schedule will be designed to avoid specific timeframes (typically weekdays from 3 to 9pm).

Yes! It is risk-free and you can un-enroll at any time.

A Smart Charging Event, also known as a Peak Demand event, occurs when Duquesne Light Company designates specific hours that are peak periods of high energy demand on the electricity grid throughout the summer, such as hot afternoons. As a customer, these events are opportunities to shift and reduce your electricity consumption to help support your community and the electricity grid.

Smart Charging Events will be called in the summer months from June to September, and will typically occur between 3 p.m. and 9 p.m.

If you are participating in this program, your EV charging will automatically pause and resume after a Smart Charging event. Typical events will be 2-3 hours, but will never last more than 6 hours. You can always opt out before or during the event if you need to keep charging.
