The shift

From procurement to orchestration.

CCAs were built on procurement. Cleaner power, chosen locally, billed through your IOU partner. That job is largely done. The cleaner power is bought. The customers are enrolled. The next mandate is coordination: turning the EVs, batteries, and solar your customers already own into a resource you can dispatch and defend.

1 · Dynamic rates are coming

Regulators are moving load-serving entities toward optional dynamic rates. California's 2027 mandate is the leading edge. The question is whose playbook you use, not whether.

2 · Self-consumption changed the math

Where export credits have fallen, solar customers optimize for self-use. Around half of EV owners also own solar. Coordination doubles the asset and protects the bill. NEM 3.0 made this urgent in California first.

3 · Equity is audited, not aspirational

Disadvantaged-community and low-income participation, multifamily reach, written into your governing agreement and watched by your member communities. Audited annually.

4 · Cost rises. Customers can leave.

Wholesale energy and resource adequacy keep climbing. Every new EV either adds to that burden or absorbs your surplus, depending on whether it is coordinated. And those same customers can opt back to bundled IOU service any month. A program they love bends the cost curve and holds them through rate cycles.

What "good" looks like now

Five things a CCA-grade program needs.

Multi-asset, any combination.

EVs, solar, batteries, water heaters, heat pumps. Activate one asset or every asset. Scale as your customer mix evolves.

Rate-layer, not rate redesign.

Dynamic pricing layered on your existing rates through submetering. No rate redesign. No rate-add risk for non-EV customers.

Self-consumption native.

Built to land midday solar in your customers' EVs and batteries, not just shift charging off peak.

Equity-first by design.

Disadvantaged-community, low-income, and multifamily participation built into the architecture. Audit-ready, not bolted on.

Board-ready evidence.

Every dispatch settled, every claim sourced, every number ready for your board, your member communities, and your regulator.

You set your own generation rate, under local control. Dynamic pricing can layer onto it on your own timeline, with no rate-add risk for non-EV customers.

Proof · ChargeWise · California (MCE + SVCE)

The playbook, running now.

California's pressures arrived first, so the proof is deepest there. Marin Clean Energy and Silicon Valley Clean Energy set their rates through their own boards and launched dynamic-rate managed charging without a utility rate case.

Equity is audited, not aspirational

Equity built into the design.

Your governing agreement commits you to reaching disadvantaged and low-income customers. Your member communities watch the numbers. Eve builds that targeting in before the first enrollment, and reports it in a format your board and your regulator accept.

California instantiation

01 · Mapping

Find the right households, on day one.

Census ACS data plus CalEnviroScreen DAC layers configured into enrollment targeting. The right addresses surface first.

02 · Weighting

Built in. Not retrofitted.

Income-band weighting baked into the program before launch. Not a retrofit bolted on after the filing.

03 · Result

DAC participation on ChargeWise.

Double the 25% CPUC mandate threshold. From day one.

EV + solar + battery · One proposition

The whole-home story your customers want.

Coordinate EVs, solar, and batteries as one whole-home proposition. One app. One program. Wherever export value has fallen, self-consumption is the customer's priority, and coordination is what protects the bill.

01

Solar

Diverted to the car.

Excess generation absorbed into managed EV charging instead of exported at low value. Customers see the surplus stored in the vehicle, not sold back at retail-minus.

02

Battery

Dispatched against TOU.

Home battery charge and discharge timed automatically to time-of-use windows. The household keeps its retail savings and the program keeps its peak.

03

EV

Timed to generation.

Charging windows aligned to local solar output and household demand. Off-peak when the grid wants it, mid-day when the panels are running.

Reference · ANWB (Netherlands)

295 MWh of solar diverted to managed charging. 75% user satisfaction across the enrolled cohort.

Board-ready and regulator-ready

Evidence your board accepts. And your regulator.

A CCA answers to its board and member communities first, and to its state regulator when the filing calls for it. Eve produces both as native output of every dispatch: settled M&V, ratepayer impact, equity participation. In the format each audience expects, whether that is your board packet, the CPUC, PURA, or another state commission.

Filing 01

Board and member-jurisdiction reporting.

Annual program performance, settled and sourced. The packet your board and member communities expect.

Filing 02

Advanced rate design submissions.

Pre-formatted in the regulator's expected structure. CPUC in California, the equivalent elsewhere. No translation step.

Filing 03

Regulatory compliance docs.

Versioned. Audit-grade. Filing-ready the moment the program closes.

Frequently asked

Questions CCAs ask before they design.

Most utilities enter at Stage 1 or 2 of the Managed Charging Ladder and climb as their program matures. Pilots launch in weeks at Stage 2 (Smart Active), then expand to Stage 3 (multi-DER coordination) or Stage 4–5 (bidirectional) as customer assets diversify and regulatory approvals land. Same platform, same audit trail at every stage.
Stage 2 (Smart Active, V1G) controls EV charging only, recalculated every 30 minutes against grid, price and carbon signals. Stage 3 (Smart Coordinated) coordinates EV, solar, battery and flexible loads as a single whole-home portfolio, with surgical dispatch at the feeder, transformer or substation. Stage 3 stacks distribution avoided cost on top of active managed value.
Eve maps to ev.energy's Cost-Avoidance Stack (developed with research support from The Brattle Group): six layers across Generation, Transmission, Distribution, Energy, Ancillary Services, Customer Operations. Eve Insight models the stack before procurement; Eve Ops settles it after. Active managed delivers $145 to $575 per EV per year; bidirectional grows the stack to up to $1,320; multi-DER coordination extends it further.
New York EAM-model programs at Con Edison (SmartCharge NY, 27,000+ EVs). California CPUC advanced rate design with MCE and SVCE (ChargeWise). Maryland DSSS framework. Performance-based filings elsewhere. When the regulator updates the format, as NY Joint Utilities did in April 2026, Eve updates with it.
Yes. California CCAs hold CPUC-approved rate authority directly, with fewer procurement steps than IOU programs. ChargeWise launched across two CCAs in two months, 50% from disadvantaged communities, AESP 2026 Energy Award winner. Eve adapts the program lifecycle to CCA-specific approval cadence and reporting requirements.
Stage 4 (Bidirectional non-exporting, V2H) ships now with no interconnection paperwork required: the EV runs the home during peak hours, never exports to the grid. Stage 5 (V2G/V2X) supports wholesale capacity, frequency regulation and ancillary services with sub-10-second aggregated load shed. ev.energy's Cost-Avoidance Stack ceiling: up to $1,320 per EV per year.
Pilots in weeks. ChargeWise reached 1,000+ enrollments in two months. SmartCharge NY scaled to 27,000+ EVs at Con Edison. Full programs scale on the regulator's clock; Eve shortens everything else through pre-built baseline methodology, ratepayer impact analysis, and filing-ready M&V from day one.
No. The CCA model is national; our deepest proof is in California, where the pressures hit first.
You set your generation rate under local control, so dynamic pricing can layer onto it on your own timeline.
