Smart charging with your electric company (leasing) car: everything you need to know

As more people embrace the transition to EVs, it is quite common that these cars are facilitated through employers leasing programs. A lot of company fleets are already electrified thanks to favorable tax incentives and company policies. In this scenario the EV driver does not own the car and sometimes does not even pay for the electricity fueling the car. Quite convenient, but what does this mean for the usage of smart charging? Spoiler alert: nothing should stop you from smart charging.

Earn rewards and reduce CO2 emissions.

It's common for employers to compensate home charging costs at a fixed rate per kWh or per kilometer driven, and with some of our energy partners offering rewards for every kWh smart charged, you can still benefit from smart charging while contributing to a reduction in CO2 emissions.

Solar boost

Many EV drivers, also the ones driving leasing cars, have solar panels installed at home. In some countries more than half of all EV drivers have this! With solar smart charging you make the most of your solar panels and increase your self-consumption. Let alone any compensation you get this is directly helping you make better use of solar panels.

With the rise of more complex tariff, keeping track and calculating charging costs can be hard sometimes. If you have your own business and pay for the leasing car yourself you might be responsible to arrange the charging costs.
