Programs Construction Update
• We are nearing the end of EVCN construction, with just a handful of projects
remaining
• PG&E construction is continuing with COVID19-related safety protocols in
place & with the goal of minimizing impact to customers during the pandemic
• COVID-related safety protocols include daily health verification, safe distancing,
proper face mask wearing, and use of good hygiene.
• As counties and the state adjust and change requirements, we monitor and
adjust as well.
• This has recently allowed for more customer representation to be present on site-
walks and pre-construction meetings.
• In Q1 2021, PG&E substantially completed 324 ports (7
projects) under the EVCN program
Through March 2021, PG&E has installed 4,504 ports
out of ~4,800 ports contracted
• In Q1 2021, PG&E substantially completed 3 sites under the
EV Fleet program
RFP Results
Goals & Objectives of the RFP: • To secure 3-4 competitively priced services with high quality contractors,
experienced with EV charger infrastructure services to support our Fleet, DCFC, Schools and Parks programs
Sourcing Approach: • 16 contractors invited to bid through a competitive solicitation; invitees
included incumbents and new contractors • RFP followed by a multi round negotiation with a cross functional evaluation
team
Results: • 5-month long solicitation process resulting in contracts awarded to Cal
Pacific (newcomer), Cupertino Electric and Veteran Power (both incumbents)

Status as of 3/31/2021
• Site eligibility complete: all
customer agreements in place
• Final design complete: all
applications have completed final
place measures
DAC, 60%
Owner, 59%
Sponsor, 41%
Notes: 1 Viable sites are those sites for which contracts are signed and the project will be constructed; 2 15,828 ports were reported as submitted in our Q4 2020 update. Since then, one site
increased its total port count by five ports; 3 4,898 ports or 198 sites were reported as viable in our Q4 2020 update. Since then, the program has cancelled 76 ports or 6 sites, while adding 5 4
ports to 1 site, resulting in a net difference of 71 ports; In Q2 2020, EVCN paused construction as the team evaluated state-, country-, and local-level construction restrictions related to
COVID-19 shelter-in-place conditions and customer preferences 10

The program currently has 65 signed contracts and 15 activated sites, equating to ~1,100 committed EVs.
25 of the 65 signed contracts (39%) are in DACs.
10 contracts were signed in Q1.
Dominant vehicle type in the program continues to be school buses.

Note: 1Viable contracts are all contracts signed to-date excluding cancelled and withdrawn. 13
EV Fleet Lead Nurturing Survey
PG&E identified business customers whose organizations showed interest in acquiring
EVs. We surveyed these organizations to better understand their priorities, and how PG&E
can best support and tailor programs to meet their needs.
548 customers were emailed a survey invitation, resulting in 86 completed surveys.
Reasons Organization have not Actions Taken Towards Electrification
Acquired EVs
~50% of survey respondents have conducted some Financial concerns are the largest barrier to EV adoption
research into electrification. However, many respondents
have not taken any electrification steps, and few have
completed a cost of ownership analysis
14n=86 n=86
EV Fleet: Marketing Update
• 140 leads generated through over 5,000 customers contacted via teleservices;
• Called nurtured leads based on recent customer survey results;
• 1 webinar focused on eTRU generating over 100 attendees;
• 2 fleet forums focused on schools and eTRU to help nurture leads to active status: 20-30 attendees;
• Revised web pages to add relevant TCO and regulation content specific to focused audience segments.
Upcoming Activities:
• OEM training with dealers in April; and
• Organize strategic conversations with key prospect decision makers prior to their application submission.
Signed Contracts: Source
PG&E is not altering rebate levels at this time:
• Few sites have processed rebates;
• Rebate payouts are well within the ranges below and do not exceed the max rebate amount;
• PG&E has not received feedback from customers on rebate levels.
*Rebate Eligible: Schools, Transit Agencies, and Disadvantaged Communities. Fortune 1000 companies not eligible. 16

VGI pilot programs, research ideas
Maria Sanz VGI Lead (she, her, hers) Expert, Product Manager | Integrated Grid Innovation and Planning [email protected]
Decision’s Objective:
• Maximize the use of feasible and cost-effective electric vehicle (EV) integration into the grid by 1/1/2030.
VGI Pilot Programs Budget: IOUs jointly can to $35MM total
Due Date for VGI Pilot Proposal: IOU are ordered to file an Advice Letter with CPUC on 7/17/2021
VGI Decision Pilot Requirements:
• Address practical barriers to VGI-enabling technologies that have already been demonstrated
• Develop pathways to scale implementation
• IOU must consider the following:
• VGI Working Group “near term priorities with strongest agreement”
• Include light, medium and heavy-duty vehicle opportunities, incl. CALSTART recommendations
• Include model-based simulation to provide understanding of expected operations and future services
• Proposal will include an evaluation plan that identifies process to determine the success of each pilot
VGI Working Group Report: https://gridworks.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/VGI-Working-Group-Final-Report-6.30.20.pdf
VGI Working Group Strong Agreement Recommendations
Coordination • Utilities coordinating to avoid duplication,
integrate recommendations from VGI WG,
CALSTART and stakeholder feedback
maximize the value of VGI pilot programs
Budget & Use Cases
Bi-directional charging could create more resilient communities and provide new grid/customer services
Challenge
• Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS) will continue as extreme weather conditions impact PG&E’s territory.
• Current temporary solution is largely diesel based.
Value of V2H/V2B and transition to V2G
Customer benefits:
• Bidirectional charging would allow EV owners to use their vehicle as backup power during PSPS
• V2H/B could be a first step to unlock the value of V2G, which could lead to new revenue streams for customer reducing total EV ownership cost and creating new grid and customer services.
Societal benefits:
• Bidirectional EVs could be a zero-emission alternative to temporary diesel generation.
Grid benefits:
• As EV adoption increases, V2G makes capacity from electric vehicles available providing a flexible response to grid’s needs. Source: http://cpuc.ca.gov/FireThreatMaps
Legend: V2H/B = Vehicle-to-Home or Building (EV battery discharges energy to home or building) , V2G = Vehicle-to- Grid (EV supply the grid)
CPUC VGI Decision (D.20-12-029)
• PG&E’s VGI pilot budget share: ~$14 million
• PG&E is exploring pilots that utilize bidirectional charging:
• Resiliency use cases, capacity shortage, EV export and grid services.
• During program design, PG&E aims to stack use cases to maximize pilots' value.

PG&E VGI pilot program ideas
Pilot 1: V2X – Vehicle to anything (3 years): Resiliency – EV Backup Power
• Objective: Reduce barriers to V2G installation, maximize utilization of V2G technology,
find reliable and cost-effective pathways to V2G, understand customer behavior and
responsiveness to V2G technologies
• VGI WG Policy recommendation: 5.05, 7.04, 9.02 and others Export - Vehicle to Grid (V2G)
• Use cases: EV backup power, V2G load shifting, EV Export, defer grid upgrades
• Technology: Bidirectional EVs, AC and DC V2G EVSE, cloud aggregators
Pilot 2: V2M – Vehicle to Microgrid (1 year):
• Objective: FTM applications of V2G during outages. Mainly focused on HD, MD EVs
• VGI WG Policy recommendation: 6.07, 9.02 Resiliency - Vehicle to Microgrid (V2M) • Use cases: EV backup power, V2G load shifting, EV Export
• Technology: : Bidirectional EVs, AC and DC V2G EVSE, cloud aggregators
Pilot 3: V2G EV Export Market Participation (2 years)
• Objective: Find pathways to enable EV participation in CAISO capacity market, assess
market
• Use cases: EV export for market participation, incl. capacity shortfall, ancillary services
• Technology: Bidirectional EVs, AC and DC V2G EVSE, cloud aggregators
Pilots will include educational and equity strategies
Conclusions
Conclusions
• Intelligent integration of electric vehicles mitigates grid impacts and generates new services.
• The VGI Decision gives PG&E the opportunity to expand its research to include bidirectional charging
• Possible areas of research could include resiliency, capacity shortage, EV export and grid services
• Collaboration among stakeholders will be key to reach California’s goal on vehicle-grid-integration
Other grid services
