Half of all electric motorists pay too much

« For many motorists, there is still uncertainty associated with switching to an electric car because it is a new technology we are getting to know. Therefore, for many, unfortunately, there is a subscription that is too expensive compared to their real charging needs, » says Ellen Trolle, director of the Charge Business in Norlys, and continues:

« As a charging operator, we have a responsibility to make the market more transparent, which is why we are now launching two new fixed -price products, where consumers can assess which solution fits them based on their driving needs. »

A study by the Competition Council has previously shown that half of the electric car owners have not chosen the cheapest charging solution and that they therefore pay an average of 70 percent too much to get their electric car.

Supports healthy charging habits

When customers let the car at home, the charge must be done with intelligent charging.

This means that the customer connects the car to the charging box and then the box automatically makes sure to charge when the electricity price is lowest.

« We need to promote the healthy charging habits, which is why we give our customers an extra incentive to charge when the proportion of renewable energy in the electricity grid is greatest by making the compensation on the electricity bill contemplated by intelligent charging. Although consumption is included in the subscription, it is important that we support the green transition, » says Ellen Trolle.

In addition to the two new fixed -price products, Norlys continues to offer charging with payment per year. kWh.

« If you almost only let your car up at home and you follow the electricity price closely, then a direct consumption settlement is still a good solution – especially if you use the opportunity for intelligent charging, then the charging box automatically charges at the cheapest time. But if you weight the confidence of knowing the fixed charging expense or you leave a lot, our two new products are probably more interesting, » Ellen Trolle says.
