How much for non Pass+ users ?

RickLightning · Feb 3, 2023

It was 43 cents a kilowatt hour, now 48 cents, a 5 cent (11.6%) increase.
Pass+ went from 31 cents to 36 cents, also a 5 cent (16.1%) increase.

In per minute states (about a dozen):

It was 32 cents per minute, now 37 cents, a 5 cent (15.6%) increase.
Pass+ went from 24 to 29 cents, also a 5 cent increase (20.8%) increase.

It’s listed in the pic. .48 per kWh for non pass.

Honestly - not really unexpected and not a horrible increase. Still way cheaper than EVgo. The only ones of those that I have had to use (no other option) were $0.59/kWh.

So the pass people are taking a proportionally larger hit.

If only EA had reliable equipment to justify an increase.. they are literally slowing down chargers to increase charge times, which means more money in their pocket. Last weekend I charged at EA I couldn't get any of the 4 chargers to output more than 68kWh.

True, but that reimbursement rate is also supposed to cover maintenance (minimal for an EV), wear and tear, and insurance coverage of the vehicle

Yes, but everyone got a 5 cent increase. It's just that a 5 cent increase is bigger on Pass+, because it's a lower cost.

The EA chargers in Jacksonville are down- looked like they were putting new equipment in. Not sure what kind of speeds will be on them

To be expected given the economy and tasks ahead of them with terminal replacements and expansion plans!

They are still a reasonably cheaper source of energy than my home charging.

Based on my last charging event of 45 minutes 29 seconds the after sales tax cost will go from $11.44 to $13.82 for the 98 KWH consumed, that comes to $0.1411 per kWh, less than my $0.2470 cost at home, so they will be my go to on long road trips.

Ooh - I will guess. 2 broken (0kW), one stuck at 30kW with broken cooling, and one that takes a half hour on the phone to get working and then gives you normal speed.

Really wish they based these prices on local utility costs. Here in my part of WA (with 3 EA stations) rates haven't increased in 16 years and just announced they won't change for 2023 either. Or get more battery buffers in place to avoid the demand charges. Keep up the terrible work EA upper management.

They are putting in a new generation of chargers, with balanced charging between two chargers. One car gets max they can take. Two cars share it, max each can take if possible.
