The initiative will also play a role in bolstering the resilience of the electric grid. This will be achieved by efficiently organizing the home charging schedules of selected customers, prioritizing times when the grid experiences lower demand and greater availability of renewable energy sources. Starting in September, Ford electric vehicle owners, along with those from GM and BMW, will receive invitations to enroll in this program. The official launch of the EV Complete Home Charging Plan pilot is set for November 1st.
The connectivity features offered in our electric vehicles are revolutionizing the customer experience by creating easy opportunities to save money, support the electric grid and drive toward zero-carbon charging, our pilot program with Duke Energy is another strong example of providing customers with better vehicle ownership experiences, while also supporting our shared grid and sustainability aspirations.
