Pros and points to consider
Pros
Energieluitjes:
- None
GridCredits:
- Highest net payout in this comparison
- Lowest commission in this comparison
- Leaving early costs nothing
- Paid quarterly, during the charging year
- Your rate is fixed for the current calendar year and never changes retroactively. Quote from the source: "Uw tarief staat vast voor het lopende kalenderjaar. Wij wijzigen het commissiepercentage niet met terugwerkende kracht."
Points to consider
Energieluitjes:
- Earnings model: 25% commission on your ERE proceeds
- Terms don't say what stopping early costs
GridCredits:
- Earnings model: 19% commission on your ERE proceeds
- Registers through Joulo
- Business customers: the mandatory yearly audit can be charged to you separately. Quote from the source: "De auditkosten worden bepaald door die auditpartij en kunnen apart in rekening worden gebracht."
Same for all: service costs none · duration 1 year · after the term renews automatically, one year at a time · smart charger needed
Estimate based on 2,500 kWh charged per year. Adjust your own usage in the comparison tool for a personalised result.
What to look at
- GridCredits charges the lowest commission (19.0%) — this matters more the more you charge.
- At 2,500 kWh per year you would keep the most with GridCredits — this shifts if your usage differs.
- Which one fits best depends on your annual usage and whether you have a smart charger.
