The Adapt & Earn Advantage
Removing the Roadblocks to Commercial EV Demand Response
ost EV demand response programs stop at residential charging. Adapt & Earn expands grid participation to public and commercial sites, solving three critical challenges for utilities and their customers.
For Utilities
Scalable Programs for Utilities
Without AmpUp, fragmented enrollment and manual incentives limit participation and slow down pilot deployment.
The Adapt & Earn Advantage
AmpUp helps utilities launch programs in hours. Site hosts are enrolled automatically, rewards are handled within the platform, and utilities get real-time performance data. No telematics integration is required.
For Site Hosts
Extra Revenue for Site Hosts
Traditional programs focus on residential, giving little reason for commercial properties to participate in managed charging.
The Adapt & Earn Advantage
Site hosts receive incentive payouts through their AmpUp accounts for every managed charging event, no forms needed. It’s a zero-lift way to create a new income stream while supporting grid stability.
For EV Drivers
Instant Rewards for Drivers
Because most EV demand response programs exclude public chargers, EV drivers have been left out of the equation entirely.
The Adapt & Earn Advantage
Drivers earn instant wallet credits after every eligible session, saving between 20 and 30% on charging costs. No new apps, forms, or utility accounts required. Just plug in, charge up, and earn.
