Reliant and GM Energy are rolling out a new program that will offer free nighttime charging for Chevrolet EV drivers. Some 150 Chevy dealerships in Texas can now offer the plan upon vehicle purchase.
The Reliant Free Charge Nights plan, available to Reliant electricity customers, provides a monthly bill credit that offsets the energy charges incurred from charging a qualifying EV between 11 pm and 6 am. Customers must designate one EV to receive the charging credit in their GM Energy Smart Charging Portal.
Reliant Energy, a subsidiary of NRG Energy, provides electricity to over 1.5 million Texans.
“As we continue to shape the future of EV charging and energy management for our customers, our work alongside Reliant in Texas is a sign of our commitment to working with industry leaders to facilitate more solutions that make EV adoption an easy decision,” said Aseem Kapur, Chief Revenue Officer, GM Energy. “The Reliant Free Charge Nights plan is a great example of how an automaker and an energy company can work together to build the ecosystem to support the all-electric future.”
“With a reputation for bringing innovative new plans and products to market, Reliant continues to make power personal for Texans. We’re excited to help Chevrolet EV drivers offset the cost of charging their vehicle all while having access to a renewable electricity plan,” said Rasesh Patel, President, NRG Consumer.”
