Electric car policy — what should be included in the lease agreement? How to formulate a modern policy

A modern electric car policy in the lease is essential to protect both the property owner and the tenant. With clear guidelines, you prevent conflicts and create security for all parties.

Six key points to include

1. Access and distribution: Specify which parking spaces have charging capability,
   who gets to use them and any queuing rules. Clarity prevents conflict.
2. Cost Breakdown: Determine who pays for installation, operation and electricity consumption.
   Include how billing occurs — monthly, per kWh or hybrid solution. Observe
   that separate kWh charging may require VAT registration for condominium associations.
3. Safety and Liability: Define who is responsible for maintenance, safety and damage
   at charging stations. Clarify insurance issues and division of responsibilities.
4. Own installation: Regulate the right of the tenant to apply for the installation of charging point,
   determine the approval process and who pays.
5. Technical requirements: Specify which technology is approved, your safety requirements and
   compatibility with the systems of the property.
6. Changes and Termination: Regulate what happens when the lease is terminated or
   when the charging possibilities change.
