Two utility companies in California are going to do fleet testing for the i-MiEV....Southern California Edison is going to see how the cars can connect with the smart grid and advanced meters, and Pacific Gas & Electric will handle finding out the impact of all the charging that’ll be going on to keep EVs running. PG&Es info will also go towards showing the benefits of using all-electric vehicles in Cali. Seems like they’re pretty confident they’ll be thumbs-uped. This will be important info to gather considering San Jose, CA is gearing up for EV use, among other CA cities, as is Oregon.
