First up, Council heard a presentation on SDG&E’s Vehicle Grid Integration program. SDG&E has been giving this presentation to many other cities. Kevin O’Beirne, customer solutions manager, gave a PowerPoint presentation. SDG&E is proposing to install electric vehicle grid territories. The utility company has exceeded the goal of 33% of its power from renewable energy sources and hopes to decrease greenhouse gas emissions. The goal is to increase the amount of electric vehicles, focus on multi-family housing communities and workplace, decrease greenhouse gas emissions, and also double the amount of miles on the electric side of hybrid cars. SDG&E’s customer base is more residential focused, encouraging electric vehicle adoption, where people charge their cars at the right time when there’s the right amount of energy. Peak hours are early evening and the middle of the night. O’Beirne also brought up Governor Brown’s “zero emission vehicle action plan”, which projects over 1.5 million zero-emission vehicles on California roads by 2025. (See the plan here.) O’Beirne added that charging overnight is ideal. SDG&E hopes to have 550 facilities throughout each region. This will be a five year program with each region having 10 chargers each.

O’Beirne replied, “About 5-10 hours.” Pro Tem Mayor Bob McClellan asked how this is paid for. O’Beirne said, “When you plug into an outlet, the charges are credit-type memberships.” In other words, it will be charged on the utility bill. No action was taken on this item ...
