13 cents per kWh that would otherwise be left on the table

The greenhouse gas reduction quota can be claimed for public and semi-public charge points. For 2027 we expect 13 cents per kWh — more than a kilowatt-hour of electricity costs. On request ENIO handles the whole process: registration, EVSE ID and the monthly charging history with the mandated data.

Calculate your site

ENIO does not settle the quota for private charge points, as the effort outweighs the return. For public and semi-public charge points we handle the entire process.

Projected value. The final level is only fixed once the year has been settled and depends on several parameters. For 2026 the rate is up to 10 cents per kWh, depending on volume and the complexity of the settlement.

One minute of maths

What the GHG quota is worth to your site

Two figures are enough. The calculation uses 13 cents per kWh — the rate we expect for 2027. The point behind it: the reimbursement then exceeds what you pay for a kilowatt-hour of electricity.

— per kWh more than the electricity costs

The rate is set anew every year. 13 cents is what we expect for 2027 — the calculation below shows where that figure comes from.

This is why the GHG quota belongs in every business case. At a mid-sized site it comes to a five-figure amount per year — a figure that helps decide when the investment pays for itself, rather than one that turns up as a pleasant surprise at the end of the year. And with us it is predictable: we buy the volume at the start of the year and commit to your rate for the agreed amount. Run the full calculation for your site, including hardware, operations and external charging.

Volume guaranteed

The volume is bought before the year begins

At the start of the year ENIO buys 15 GWh on the market and allocates it to its own customers. That fixes your rate for the volume agreed in your contract from day one — regardless of how the market for evidence moves during the year.

15 GWh bought in advance

Not at the end of the year, when it turns out how much is still available. The volume is under contract before it is allocated to customers.

Guaranteed rate per kWh

For the agreed volume the rate from your contract applies. You calculate your site with a figure that will not change afterwards.

No exhausted quota in December

With providers that have not bought volume in advance, there may simply be no quota left towards the end of the year. With us that cannot happen — the volume is reserved.

This is why it pays to fix it early. The sooner the charge points are registered and the volume allocated, the more certain the rate for the whole year — and the less your business case depends on a figure that is only known in hindsight.

Where the rate comes from

Why the level changes every year

The fuel ordinance obliges those placing petrol and diesel on the market to cut their greenhouse gas emissions — by 8 per cent in 2026 and 13 per cent by 2030. They can close that gap with evidence from charging electricity. The higher the obligation, the more the evidence is worth; the more electricity is charged and reported, the more evidence exists. The rate per kWh emerges from these two forces.

Resulting rate per kWh, in cents—

Model calculation. Calibrated so that the 2027 obligation of 9 % at today's charged volume gives the 13 cents we expect for 2027.

Schematic illustration. The binding rules are those of the fuel ordinance in its current version; the actual rate is set annually and depends on the market for evidence. For you as an ENIO customer that market is not a risk, because we buy the volume at the start of the year and commit to your rate for the agreed amount. What you get from us is the full process: registration, monthly charging history, submission and payout.

Requirements

What has to be in place

For Austria. Germany works the same way but with registration at the BNetzA instead of ladestellen.at — semi-public charge points, however, do not qualify there.

Requirement	Public	Semi-public
Signed beneficiary agreement	yes	yes
Monthly charging history with full data	yes	yes
Registered on ladestellen.at, valid EVSE ID	yes	yes
Charge point type certificate	yes	yes
MID meter datasheet	yes	yes
Electrician acceptance report	yes	yes
Photos of charge point and type plate on audit	yes	yes
Vehicle VIN and registration document	—	yes

Per charge point the following is required: site address, coordinates, serial number, charging power, energy delivered, connector type and type assignment. The ENIO backend supplies this data automatically.
