Earn $125 or more for adjusting your home charging with Flex EV

You may already be familiar with the Flex Smart+ program, which offers extra rewards for Bainbridge Island residents who allow their smart thermostat’s temperature to adjust slightly during periods of high energy demand, known as “Flex events.” But did you know that residents who own electric vehicles and charge at home can earn even more rewards by enrolling in the Flex EV program?

By joining, you’ll receive $50 upfront plus an additional $75 from the Flex Smart+ program. When a Flex event occurs, PSE will send a remote signal to your vehicle or charger to pause charging for a short time. You’ll then earn an additional $0.50 for every kilowatt-hour of electricity saved.

You can control your participation through your vehicle’s onboard telematics or through your connected Level 2 charger. Many brands and models are supported, with a full list available online.

Don’t own a Level 2 charger? PSE offers a $300 discount on chargers purchased through the PSE Marketplace. Depending on your household income and size, you may also qualify for additional Empower Mobility benefits, including a $600 rebate on a Level 2 charger and up to $2,000 toward installation costs.
