ChargeBack: Employer Reimbursement for Employee Home Charging

ChargeBack: Employer Reimbursement for Employee Home Charging

ChargeBack supports employers reimbursing employees for home-charging costs. It uses available charging records, applicable tariffs and agreed approval rules. It is not a product for selling spare charger capacity or guaranteeing charging revenue.

What information is needed?

Start with the employee and charger details, recorded charging sessions, applicable electricity tariffs and employer policy. Agree how business use is identified, who checks the records and who approves a reimbursement. Compatibility and data availability must be assessed for the specific equipment and connection.

Who remains responsible?

The employer defines reimbursement policy and provides the required approvals and permissions. Employees supply the necessary charging information. ChargeControl supports the agreed workflow; installers and energy suppliers remain responsible for their own services. Your finance team and advisers assess tax treatment. A record or automated calculation does not itself establish tax compliance.

Are reimbursement and ERE the same?

No. Reimbursement compensates home-charging costs under an employer policy. ERE is a separate, optional route requiring checks on metering, registration, ownership and authority to act. Reimbursing an employee does not establish ownership of that employee’s ERE rights. A MID meter alone does not confirm eligibility, and any proceeds depend on verification and realised market value.

Where should we start?

Discuss your fleet setup, see the coordination workflow or review fees and included scope. If you want to explore a separate ERE route, start an indicative assessment.

Scenario assumption: €0.15 per ERE and 100% of sessions counted. This does not mean 100% renewable electricity or verified eligibility. The portal scenario for delivery year 2026 uses 0.505 × 0.6588 = 0.332694 ERE/kWh, or €0.0499041 gross per kWh. Actual issuance and value follow scheme and market conditions.
