Con Edison, GM to Test EV Chargers Measuring Ability

Consolidated Edison Inc. and General Motors Co. said they are
partnering on a study to test the ability of electric vehicle
chargers to distinguish between electricity used to charge a
vehicle and power used simultaneously for other appliances by the
same customer.
Building reliability in energy-measurement technologies in EV
chargers will help support managed-charging programs, which reward
customers for charging their vehicles at times of lower electric
demand, the companies said.
Such programs help reduce strain on the electric grid, lower the
need for infrastructure upgrades, and bolster the use and value of
renewable energy, the companies said.
The study is expected to start at Con Edison's training facility
in New York City in early 2023 before potentially moving into field
testing with real customers.
