Personal calculation
What does your charging square yield under the Dutch ERE system?
We calculate for you:
- how many EREs your charging points yield per year, with the renewable share of 2026;
- what you net after an agreement of one, three or five years;
- what your own solar panels with Guarantees of Origin add to that.
You will receive your calculation by email. We will not call you unsolicited; therefore, your phone number is not required.
Frequently asked questions
Here you will find answers to frequently asked questions about EREs, the mechanism, and when your charging square qualifies.
For other questions, you can reach us via the contact details on our contact page.
No. We are supplier-independent and work with any CPO platform and manufacturer that can provide session data.
Nothing upfront. We retain a handling fee on the realised value at sale: see our formulas for the percentages, each time with a minimum per year. You will not receive an invoice from us, only a self-bill for the payment of your share of the proceeds.
Your EREs can be traded as soon as they are booked onto the account in the Energy Register for Transport. We aim to maximise the proceeds for you (and thus also for us) and closely monitor the ERE prices with the fuel suppliers.
Payment occurs after sale.
Suppliers of fuels for transport must make their deliveries more sustainable, as required by the European directive on renewable energy - REDII(Dec 2018) andREDIII(Oct 2023). The Netherlands has transposed REDIII into the Fuel Transition Obligation (BTV) on 1 January 2026: fuel suppliers must demonstrate an increasing amount of CO₂ reduction with EREs each year.
This obligation increases year on year and is being extended to inland shipping and maritime shipping, so a growing market is assured.
Fuel suppliers can obtain EREs by:
- supplying renewable fuels (biofuels or synthetic fuels),
- supplying renewable hydrogen, or
- purchasing EREs from renewable electricity supplied to electric vehicles.
One ERE stands for 1 kg CO₂-equivalent emission reduction compared to the fossil reference. The previous system of HBE's (Renewable Fuel Units) will be replaced by EREs on 1 January 2026.
No. No government money is involved. Fuel suppliers buy EREs to meet their legal obligations — the principle that the polluter pays. EREs are therefore in principle separate from fiscal investment schemes and from lease or charging-as-a-service formulas; have the combination checked by your advisor.
The Fuel Transition Obligation is enshrined in Dutch law until 2035, in line with European climate goals for transport.
Charging energy from the grid counts towards the Dutch share of renewable electricity: 50.5% in 2026.
If you supply electricity from your own renewable generation, for example solar panels on your roof, and it is covered by Guarantees of Origin for non-grid supply, then 100% of that charging energy counts. You will then need about 1.5 kWh for one ERE instead of 3 kWh: the same kWh generates approximately twice as many EREs. Electricity from biomass or biogas does not count.
Are you considering solar panels or a battery behind the meter to power your chargers? We can assist you with that.
No. In the Netherlands, there is no minimum power requirement: public, semi-public, and private charging points are eligible, as long as they are correctly metered.
Yes, since 2026, home chargers can also generate EREs through a registration service provider. The charging station then needs an integrated MID-certified meter, and you must be the owner of the grid connection.
We focus on businesses; if you have a home charger from the company, please contact us.
Then it is not too late: charging energy from 2026 can be booked until 1 March 2027. After that, it is definitively lost. The sooner you get in, the less you leave behind.
We only read the charging volumes that are necessary for the booking in the Register of Energy for Transport. We do not request access to your customer data or your rates and do not keep any records of that.
