PG&E also offers a service provider option for non-residential aggregations, virtual power plant aggregations, and vehicle-grid-integration aggregations. Unlike the aggregator option, customers of service providers do not have to execute the Add / Delete form. Instead, their customers must agree to the T&Cs and provide required PG&E identifiers such as account number and meter number to enroll. Given the customer does not authorize PG&E to shared data with the service provider, the service provider is not permitted to receive customer data from PG&E. The service provider option requires the third-party to execute a unique agreement with PG&E and the third-party is subject to cybersecurity and privacy reviews. The service provider may receive admin fees in addition to the $2/kWh incentive for load reduction.
