Key Functions of TruEV Insights

  • Electricity Consumption Analysis

    Example Example

    Comparing pre-EV and post-EV electricity bills to determine the additional electricity consumed due to the EV.

    Example Scenario

    An EV owner uploads their electricity usage data and vehicle information. TruEV Insights segregates the data into pre-EV and post-EV periods, applies a seasonal adjustment, and calculates the increased electricity consumption attributable to the EV.

  • Cost Analysis

    Example Example

    Calculating the total cost of electricity used to charge the EV and comparing it with the cost of gasoline for a traditional vehicle.

    Example Scenario

    A user provides their electric cost per kWh, average gasoline price, and total miles driven. TruEV Insights calculates the total electric cost, average electric cost per mile, and compares it with the average gas cost per mile to illustrate potential savings.

  • Efficiency Metrics

    Example Example

    Determining the vehicle's efficiency in kWh per mile and comparing it with traditional fuel-only MPG ratings.

    Example Scenario

    After determining the total increased electricity usage and total electric miles driven, TruEV Insights calculates the kWh per mile for the EV and provides an MPGe (Miles Per Gallon equivalent) rating to offer a direct comparison with conventional vehicles.
