Are you thinking of investing in charging stations for your property, BRF or your business?

Our Clients
Installing charging boxes raises property value and creates new revenue streams. Using our calculator, you get a data-driven forecast based on real parameters:
Identify your break-even: See exactly what month your plant is turning a profit.
Maximizing Government Grants: We automatically count.”Charge the Car Subsidy“which covers part of the cost depending on the size of the corporation.
Custom Business Model: Whether you represent a BRF or a shopping centre, the calculation is calculated based on your specific property type.
Each property has different conditions for charging. The calculator is preset with industry data for four main categories:
BRF & Community: Focus on accommodation parking with night charging (14h) and stable use.
Hotel: Optimized for overnight guests with high turnover on withdrawals via shared charging.
Shopping center: Calculated on fast charging and short visit times (1h) for maximum throughput.
Office: Adapted for workplace charging during office hours (8h).
You can fine-tune everything from number of outlets (up to 200pc) to current electric car share and expected annual increase.
Investing: Enter your estimated cost per withdrawal (default values from $20,000 to $200 000 depending on type).
Financials: Adjust your electricity cost (standard 1.50/kWh) against customer price (standard 4.00/kWh) to see your margin.
When you click on “Calculate ROI”, you will get a full visual report with:
Monthly Cash Flow Statement: See how charging income and any monthly fees cover interest costs and amortization.
Accumulated profit: A line chart that clearly marks when your net investment is fully repaid.
To provide you with the most accurate calculation, our tool takes into account several advanced economic factors:
Margin and energy consumption
The calculator is based on a standard margin of 2.50 kr per kWh (at a customer price of $4.00) and an average energy per session of 22.5 kWh. For commercial properties with shared charging, the capacity of up to 720 hours per month divided by the parking time is counted.
BRF Connection Fees
For condominium associations, you can include a connection fee per user. This reduces your initial net investment and provides a significantly faster payback period.
Stop guessing and start counting. Use ChargeNode's calculator to get the decision base you need to future-proof your parking.

Your level of support for the “Charge the Car Subsidy” is governed by the size of the company. The size is based on the number of employees, turnover and balance sheet size of the group as a whole.
Here's a rundown of the different categories and what support you can expect:
Important to remember: When calculating size, not only the individual company is counted, but also the parent companies, subsidiaries and partners of the entire group.

All property types can be profitable, but the conditions vary. Hotels and shopping centres have shorter parking hours but more visitors, while BRF and offices have longer parking hours with dedicated users. The calculator automatically adjusts parameters such as average loading time and occupancy based on your property type.
Profitability is based on the margin between the purchase price and the selling price of electricity. The calculator uses standard values of SEK 1.50/kWh in purchase cost and SEK 4.00/kWh in customer price, which gives a margin of SEK 2.50/kWh. You can adjust these values in advanced settings to match your actual electricity costs and pricing.
The investment cost includes the charging station, installation, electrical work and any connection fees. For condominium associations (BRF), there is often a connection fee per outlet.
The payback period is calculated by simulating the monthly income from charging and any monthly fees, minus interest charges on the investment. We take into account that the number of electric cars increases over time (standard increase 3% per month) which progressively increases occupancy and revenue until the accumulated profit covers the net investment.
