What is it worth to move a load out of peak?
On Energy Wise Standard Time of Day, every kilowatt-hour a day you move from 5pm to midnight is worth about $83 a year in the month the gap is widest. An electric car charging 10 kWh a night, or a water heater on a timer, is the kind of load that actually moves.
When should you charge an electric car at home? →Where this comes from
Hours and prices are read from the tariff City of Colorado Springs filed with its regulator, as published in the NREL Utility Rate Database, and drawn the same way on every plan page. If your plan is not listed here, either it has no hourly pricing or its filing is too old or too partial for us to price honestly — we leave those out rather than guess.
