About us

Auto-filled profile (draft)

Vattenfall is one of the largest energy companies in Northern Europe and offers ERE registration to private charge-point owners, often combined with an energy contract. Commission is 25% on a one-year contract, without separate service costs; a smart charger is not required. Payout is annual and the payout process takes longer than average. Customers use the InCharge app. Brand recognition and scale are strengths, but the commission is at the high end and the terms are most attractive for existing customers.

Smart charger & MID meter

What is a smart charger?

A smart charger is a charging station that is connected to the internet and can automatically record and report your charging sessions to the provider. This lets the provider see exactly how many kWh were charged and when, and — for some services — steer the charging moment to take advantage of green electricity or lower tariffs.

A MID meter is almost always required

Regardless of whether the charger is smart or not, an MID-certified meter is almost always required for ERE. The MID meter provides an accurate, legally valid record of the charged volume. Without an MID meter, the kWh cannot be converted into ERE units. The only exception the NEa names is an exclusive allocation point set up by your grid operator, behind which only the charger draws power — rare for home chargers.
