How Voltico monetizes each EV charging session

How Voltico monetizes each EV charging session

Every time an electric vehicle charges, each kWh can contribute to ERE emission credits, which can be traded, and generate income. Here’s how it works.

Process

Step-by-step

As a leading emission credit service provider, Voltico enables companies to claim and trade EREs with no extra admin. Simply connect our software, and we take care of everything else. Here’s how we work, step by step.

1

Connect Voltico

Once all eligible EV chargers are connected to our platform for seamless data exchange, Voltico begins tracking charging sessions in real time. No additional hardware or manual uploads are required.

Using smart batteries or solar panels? Voltico syncs all energy data and organizes every charging session, even if you have multiple charging locations.

2

Validate charging data

Our system validates and matches charging data with user, charger, and power connections. It checks eligibility, completeness, and timestamp accuracy to ensure full compliance.

Charging sessions must be validated to claim ERE emission credits. With Voltico, you’re always compliant and audit-ready.

3

Claim credits

With your validated kWh from charging sessions, we register and claim ERE emission credits with the Nederlandse Emissieautoriteit (NEa). Generating renewable energy on-site? That can double the value of your credits. Earn up to €0.20 per kWh.

Charging EVs with only grid energy? You can still earn ERE emission credits. Voltico guarantees optimal value for every kWh charged.

4

Trade credits

We trade your ERE emission credits through established brokers to secure the best prices and terms. Voltico operates independently from fuel suppliers and always trades through the market to maximize your return.

We always bundle EREs into larger offerings, making them more attractive to buyers and allowing our clients to benefit from economies of scale. For larger charging volumes, we can explore fixed prices with buyers, providing companies with predictable, recurring income

Periodic payouts

Once your ERE emission credits are traded, earnings are automatically paid out every period, creating a recurring cash flow. A full audit trail is accessible on our platform.

We automatically issue an invoice and transfer the income to your account, eliminating any manual administration on your side.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Which companies are eligible?

Companies with their own charging stations* that provide electricity to vehicles, such as logistics companies, real estate locations, offices and fleet owners, are eligible. With at least 10 charging stations, it is usually profitable.

* The grid connection for the location with charging stations must be in the name of the (parent) company.

What does Voltico cost?

Voltico works on a no-cure, no-pay basis: you only pay a fee when your EREs are actually sold. Our fee is 20% of the realised proceeds. Volume-based tiers are available for larger portfolios.

There are no fixed monthly costs. Any one-time onboarding fee is deducted from your first payout, so there's nothing to pay upfront.

How much income can ERE-certificates generate?

The income depends on the charging volume and the current ERE market price. As a rule of thumb, charging via the grid yields approximately €0.10 per kWh net. Charging with simultaneous on-site renewable generation, for example solar panels, can yield up to approximately €0.20 per kWh. This depends on the simultaneity between charging and generation, with or without a battery. Voltico optimises this automatically.

EREs are traded on the open market. The ERE price is determined by supply and demand and typically translates to between €0.05 and €0.15 per kWh net. Prices are not guaranteed. More information about ERE prices in this blog post.

No rights can be derived from these indications.

How do EREs contribute to a better environment?

ERE certificates encourage the use of renewable energy in the transport sector by financially rewarding electric driving. Fuel suppliers buy them to comply with their legal sustainability obligations. As a result, money flows from fossil fuels to electric charging, CO₂ emissions decrease, and fossil fuel dependence reduces. The system rewards those who choose electric driving, and therefore contributes to more sustainable mobility.

From January 2026, emissiereductie-eenheden (EREs) replaced hernieuwbare brandstofeenheden (HBEs). This new system, which falls under the European RED III directive, introduces several important improvements. The ERE system focuses directly on actual CO₂ emission reductions across the entire transport chain. Its goal is no longer just to increase the volume of renewable energy, but to promote the forms of renewable energy that have the greatest impact on reducing total CO₂ emissions in the transport sector.

Do I need extra hardware?

You don’t need any additional hardware if your charging data is measured via certified meters. This applies when your charger is MID-certified, or when chargers are connected through a secondary allocation point (SAP) that exclusively measures charging activity. Voltico is fully software-based, and flexible API endpoints allow seamless data exchange with chargers, smart batteries, and solar panels. No hard- or software modifications required. We work with leading CSMSs, OEMs, and MSPs to ensure a scalable and reliable setup.

Which chargers are supported?

Voltico’s software integrates seamlessly with most existing systems and charging points, whether public, semi-public, or private, across one or multiple locations. It is compatible with AC and DC chargers, as well as commercial and residential solutions. If you’d like to check whether your chargers are eligible, contact us or schedule a short call.
