How does WeaveGrid Automatic Charging interact with my vehicle’s settings?

When you plug in at home, WeaveGrid identifies your current and target battery level. Based on your daily mileage needs and charging speed, our algorithms determine when the charging should begin such that your target battery level is reached ahead of the ‘Charge Departure Time’ you’ve set in your WeaveGrid dashboard settings.

WeaveGrid initially sets a basic off-peak Tesla schedule that starts at midnight. Within a few minutes of plugging in at home, WeaveGrid will generate an optimized schedule. You’ll see the Tesla app’s ‘Schedule’ ‘Start Charging at’ time change to a time that has been optimized for you, based on your particular needs, your energy rates, and broader grid circumstances.

After WeaveGrid has set an optimized schedule, editing the ‘Start Charging At’ or ‘Depart By’ settings in the Tesla app directly will temporarily disable Automatic Charging for your active or next upcoming charging session. Your changes will be respected for that session. After that, the basic midnight schedule is restored.

You can always override the charge schedule generated by WeaveGrid directly on your charger or vehicle, or through their dedicated apps. You can also reply “CHARGE NOW” to 59972 to start charging immediately.
