Employees can either charge their vehicles using a mobile phone and or RIFD card/fob. To charge using their mobile phones, they will need to download the EV Charge.Online app; the app will then allow them to register, locate and activate an available charging point at your premises. 

Our charging points can also be accessed using an RFID card/fob, allowing businesses to restrict who can and who cannot use their charging points. Alternatively, businesses can also operate their charging points by entering the VRM (vehicle registration mark) of the electric vehicle, providing a secure solution for private charging requirements.

If your EV Charging Unit/Pedestal is flashing red, then the charging point is faulty.

Please contact your installer and arrange a date and time for inspection.

Ensuring that there’s sufficient electricity to charge electric vehicles is important to not only activate the charge of vehicles, but to ensure that your premises does not experience a power cut. EV Charge.Online’s dynamic load management feature ensures that multiple cars can charge efficiently using available power at the premises whilst protecting fuses from overloading.

Company car drivers pay Benefit-in-Kind tax in line with vehicle emissions. Because pure electric vehicles produce zero emissions, from April 2020, company car drivers who drive an electric vehicle will pay 0% Benefit-in-Kind tax. This will increase to 1% in April 2021 and 2% in April 2022. This fiscal initiative has encouraged many individuals to make the transition to driving and electric vehicles due to the significant savings made.

With EV Charge.Online, businesses and organisations have complete control over how they wish to offer their charging points to their employees and/or visitors. You can allow EV drivers to either simply plug in and charge for free or pay for their charging session. 

EV Charge Online not only allows businesses to customise their charging tariffs to suit their financial requirements, businesses can also offer flexible pricing models. For example, businesses are able to assign particular tariffs to individual groups; employees may be able to charge for free whilst visitors pay for their charging session.

The cost of charging an electric vehicle can vary depending on the car and size of battery. Whilst some will argue that the initial cost of purchasing an electric vehicle is costly, proven research and data states that electric vehicles are cheaper to run as charging costs equate to a small fraction of petrol/diesel costs.

OCPP (Open Charge Point Protocol) is simply a language that allows OCPP compliant charging points and back office management systems to communicate seamlessly with one another. OCPP is a popular, worldwide industry-wide standard, allowing interoperability between EV charging points, back office management systems and electric vehicles.

Although some electric vehicle drivers charge their vehicles at their workplace or public charging stations, most charging activity is undertaken at the home, overnight. This provides EV drivers with peace of mind as their vehicle will benefit from full charge the next morning. Some EV drivers recharge their vehicles using a 3-pin plug, however charging takes much longer as well as the inconvenience of wires and charging cables through flaps, doors and windows.
