Choose the right electricity contract to handle increased charging needs. We guide you to smarter electricity purchases and better control over future energy costs.
When electric car charging becomes part of your property, everything changes. Suddenly, electricity consumption can double in certain hours, and traditional fixed electricity contracts leave you no way to control costs.
With variable price agreements, the retail price can vary greatly throughout Sweden — from around 50 öre/kWh at night in low tariff areas to over 400 öre/kWh during peak hours in high tariff areas. For property owners with electric car charging, this is both a challenge and an opportunity.
Without smart steering: Cars charge at any time → high costs during expensive hours
With departure-based charging: ChargeNode's system asks when the car should be ready and automatically charges when the electricity price is at its lowest, which can result in significantly lower charging costs.
No later than 2027 will all power grid companies bill for power peaks. Many already do it today. A property with traditional charging may need a heavy-duty main fuse to supply 25 charging locations. With ChargeNode charging optimization, a smaller fuse is often enough — and thanks to lower power output, power charges can be kept down.
Before you negotiate new electricity contracts — make sure your charging solution can benefit from smart tariffs. With the right technology, hourly rate agreements and future impact tariffs become your friends instead of threats to the economy.
Smart charging isn't just about technology -- it's about taking control of the entire energy equation.
