Charging & refunds at home
With chargeHome, we provide companies with a fair and efficient solution for charging e-vehicles at home. Our system ensures cost transparency and takes into account both drivers' needs and company guidelines.
Home charging challenges
The integration of home chargings into existing company guidelines and the fair reimbursement of employees presents companies with significant challenges. Standard solutions can only be used to a limited extent.
Three core challenges can be identified:
Cost and comfort optimization
Your field service fleet is rarely in the office. With a home charging infrastructure, you enable your employees to charge time and cost-effectively. This ensures acceptance and a comfortable experience with e-vehicles.
Equal treatment of all employees
Different living situations (electricity tariffs, charging station rentals, billing costs) make it challenging to determine the refund and the corresponding car policy.
Difficult access to charging data
Existing standard charging station solutions only work for 25% of drivers - especially in rental contracts or in apartment buildings, monitoring and reimbursing charged electricity is complex and time-consuming.
Reimbursement for home charges: simple, fair and independent of the charging station
With our chargeHome solution, we achieve complete equal treatment for all electric-driving employees. Regardless of whether it's your own or rented charging station, intelligent charging solutions or a household power adapter, we record the electricity charged at home using the car app and can thus reimburse all employees for home charges. In addition, we also take over the reimbursement for you — no new processes and additional accounting expenses for you.
