Electric Vehicle Time of Use Rate
The EV Rate provides EV drivers in Mesa's electric service area an incentive to charge their vehicle during the hours electricity is cheapest and most abundant (between 11PM and 5AM - Super Off Peak Hours). Customers with an EV or plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) and programmable EV charger will be able to save money charging their vehicle and help all electric customers avoid higher electricity costs by reducing electric loads during peak hours. SRP customers, please visit the SRP website.
How It Works
This rate enables you to save money by charging your vehicle during off peak and super off peak hours (see chart below). This applies to your EV as well as pool equipment and any other large appliance where use can be shifted away from on peak hours. Additionally, pricing per kilowatt hour is lower on weekends.

Pricing
Energy is priced per kilowatt-hour (kWh) and the price varies based on when electricity is used. On this rate, monthly electric charges reflect how much energy you’ve used during your billing cycle and at what time.
