Electric Utility Commercial Tariff Requirements for Electric Vehicle (EV) Charging

The New York Public Service Commission (PSC) must establish a commercial tariff to facilitate faster EV charging. In establishing this tariff, the PSC must use alternatives to traditional demand-based rate structures, other operation cost relief mechanisms, or a combination of approaches. The PSC must include mechanisms that enable customers whose largest electricity demand is from EVs to opt into the commercial tariff without unreasonable delay.
