Great River Energy Program to Provide Off-Peak Charging for Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles. | Green Energy News: "ChargeWise outlets available for installation in consumers’ garages to provide low-cost, off-peak energy for charging plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs). The program is being developed in anticipation of the launch of several production PHEVs over the next two years.
The ChargeWise outlets will charge PHEV batteries between the hours of 11 p.m. and 7 a.m. when demand for electricity is at its lowest and the price for wholesale electricity is also at its lowest.
Charging the batteries during these hours also allows Great River Energy to “store” wind energy allowing PHEVs to receive a significant amount of power from renewable sources."
