Why San Francisco
Why San Francisco fleets buy charging as a service.
San Francisco is one of the busiest robotaxi markets in the US, and its dense grid leaves little room for new depot service. Mobile DC charging supports autonomous, delivery and municipal fleets while permanent capacity is built.
Utility
PG&E
Most sites in San Francisco are served by PG&E, with CleanPowerSF supplying energy for many accounts. A permanent depot here means a PG&E service application, design, permits and construction before the first charge. CaaS connects to what the site already has, or runs without it.
Where fleets run
SoMa and Mission Bay
Yards near SoMa and Mission Bay, Bayview industrial district, Port of San Francisco and along US-101, I-280, I-80 (Bay Bridge) get charging on site, so vehicles do not detour to a public hub between routes.
How you pay
Per kWh or per dispenser
Hardware, energy, maintenance and 24/7 monitoring sit inside one rate for your San Francisco site. Add dispensers as the fleet grows, or move blocks to another California yard under the same agreement.

If you're also planning a permanent PG&E-connected depot, CaaS charges the fleet until it's energized, then the blocks move.

Usually, yes. Vehicle incentives are separate from charging service. We confirm current California program eligibility for your address in the Site Power Plan.
