Anyone else get this?
Basically on SDG&E Reduce Your Use days (a voluntary energy use reduction program where you are incentivized to use less energy than normal), SDG&E/Blink/Ecotality will automatically disable your EVSE during the Reduce Your Use event. You can of course override this if desired.
Seems useful for those hot summer afternoons, though in practice with most people already charging off-peak I wonder how much effect it will have? I would think that charging TOU rates for public charging would be more effective, since public charging is typically done during the day while charging at home is typically done at night.
I signed up anyway.

Not sure if it'd save enough to get you any extra money!
