Has anyone heard of this before? How could the system know when the utilities are turning to more polluting sources for power generation at a given time?

InsideEVs said:eMotorWerks JuiceNet program is a charging solution that co-ordinates with regional power companies’ grid management systems to notify your charger when the system is under strain or “dirty” power is in use.
When a JuiceNet enabled charging system is running, either via EMW’s own JuiceBox Pro charger (10 kW), or using your existing EVSE with a JuicePlug universal attachment (retailing at $149), the charge rate is modulated/lowered temporarily until the grid load is stabilized.
The program is currently available in California only
