• You will receive a cash compensation for your participation. You can also feel great about helping to reduce carbon emissions, enhance the resiliency of the electric grid, and pave the way from home solar and battery systems contribute to the grid of the future.
• By participating in this Program, you will help improve the resilience of your local utility grid by either using energy from your solar battery or sending energy from your battery to the grid when its most needed.

• The program currently accepts SolarEdge storage inverters with LG Chem batteries into the program.

• In partnership with your local utility, AutoGrid will activate the advanced capabilities of home solar and energy storage systems. Together, our goal is to learn more about the potential for solar and battery storage to improve the energy resilience of your home, your community, and of the entire utility grid. The pilot will consist of 50-100 “events” spread across program period.
• "During an “event”, your home will use energy from your battery, reducing your electricity consumption from the grid. Whether you are home or not, you will not notice any change--the events will not impact the reliable electric service you receive, and you do not need to alter your routine or activities in any way.

• You may withdraw enrolment at any time by contacting AutoGrid.

• Minimally. AutoGrid will: (i) send signals to your battery system send energy into your home during the program (ii) share the performance of your battery system, and how your system responded to these signals.

• The SCE program starts on Oct-15-2021 and will end on May-13-2024.

• The program will never utilize the energy reserved by your system for backup during an outage. Your solar system will charge your battery for backup power, keeping a reserve available that is not affected by events for the Program.

• There has been a lot of communication around planned outages across California and beyond, which could include your area. Whenever there is an outage - whether that outage is planned for maintenance, a shutdown for wildfire prevention, or an emergency on the grid - your system will react the same way. Your system will disconnect from the grid, and your solar system will continue working during the day. At night you will use energy from your battery to support the four circuits you’ve chosen to back up. Participation in the Program will not impact the backup capabilities of your system.

• For the purposes of this Power Flex Pilot, we will share the following information with SCE: your solar system’s energy production, the status of your battery and smart inverter for a period before, during, and after the test events, your home address, and a unique identifier we will generate for your system.

Welcome to AutoGrid’s FlexSavers Program. With AutoGrid’s Energy Savers Program, you help your utility manage the grid better and lower the need for more expensive power plants. You must meet the following eligibility requirements to participate in the VPP Program:

• You must be at least 18 years old.
• You must be a Southern California Edison Company (“SCE”) or Clean Power Alliance (“CPA”) electricity account holder for the duration of the VPP Program.
• You must NOT be a participant in SCE’s Smart Energy Program or Summer Discount Plan
• You must have an operable and eligible behind-the-meter, solar-paired battery system manufactured by SolarEdge or another manufacturer authorized and approved by AutoGrid (the “Battery System”).
• The Battery System must be connected to an active Wi-Fi network at your account service address.
• You must agree to and comply with the following Terms and Conditions.

These Terms and Conditions (the “Terms and Conditions”) apply to participants in SCE’s Virtual Power Plant Pilot or other similar program (the “VPP Program”) and are between you and AutoGrid Systems, Inc. (“AutoGrid”). The VPP Program, managed by AutoGrid on behalf of SCE, will make changes to your Battery System’s operations in response to requests from SCE. As a participant in the VPP Program, you acknowledge and agree that your use of your Battery System and your participation in the VPP Program are subject to these Terms and Conditions

• You agree to participate in the VPP Program and you agree to allow AutoGrid to coordinate with your Battery System manufacturer and/or provider to remotely control your Battery System during the term of the VPP Program, from October-15-2021 to May-13-2024 (the “Term”). You authorize AutoGrid to request and access your personally identifiable information related to the Battery System, including data on energy storage and usage (“Data”). You agree to keep the Battery System connected to SCE’s electric service during the Term at your sole cost and expense.

• Whenever there is an outage - whether that outage is planned for maintenance, a shutdown for wildfire prevention, or an emergency on the grid - your system will operate as it would normally. Your system will not be used in the pilot during an outage.

• You acknowledge that AutoGrid may receive all credits, rebates, environmental attributes, solar renewable energy credits, or other payments or offsets (the “Benefits”) that are attributable to the VPP Program. All Benefits will be the sole property of and transferable by AutoGrid

  In exchange for your participation in the VPP Program, AutoGrid will offer you $1000 Master Card Gift card (the “Rebate”) in the following installments: $400 at sign up; then 3 payments of $200 on Nov-1st of each program year during the Term. AutoGrid reserves the right to make changes to the Rebate from time to time. In such cases, you will be notified and will have option to terminate your participation. The Rebate will not be exchangeable for cash or SCE or CPA statement credit. You are solely responsible for compliance with federal, state and local tax and other laws, and any costs, associated with accepting and using the Rebate.
