PG&E's EV-B tariff is specifically for a dedicated EV meter, but the installation cost of a dedicated meter + box + charger is so much that it really doesn't make sense for residential applications.

eMotorWerks especially is experimenting with chargers that have wifi + a lot of smarts built into them.

Yes, I'm also trying to talk to residential charger OEMs on potential partnerships. I want to stay out of the hardware business if possible.
